Last year, with respower on blender(90 min) account, I could see on the monitor up to 160 computer running for an anim. :shock:

Usually it was between 40 and 70, all of them were at least 2ghz dual cores.

So, for stills, if instead of split frames for blender, we could have this networked master/slaves, if would really be great for rendering big images for 300 dpi print.
The only pb I would see is ram ! 2 gigas ram is too short for render such stills. It should be on an x64 OS that can swap big amount of memory when loading the scenes, on each slaves.

For animations, 90 min for each frame, like for the best blender account, would be too short I think ...

For stills anyway, I would be VERY interested !

Vanessa07 :
If the indigo account is similar to the blender account, with slaves as for the split frame for blender, it would be a price/month, so no price/Ghz ...
:D
