Last year I was pretty jazzed when I had a new computer built for LR & PS, with an i7 & 32 gigs RAM, SSDs, etc.
Yesterday my son sent me the specs for his new workstation (he's an animator for one of the major animation studios).
96 Gigs of RAM, and get this, 16 Xeon ES-2687W processors! 16 of them! Holy cow.
I looked up the retail price of the processors and that's about $30k worth!
Two monitors, a 30" and a huge Cintiq 24".
