The RAM is not the point - read the specs of that machine. You can carve
that E10k up into partitioned computing environments. As someone else
pointed out, folding would be a nice app to run on it - however from my
personal experience folding is much better on the SGI platform (especially
an R10k series Octane - YUM!).
This machine is intended for ->real<- work. Pr0n and UT2k3 can be had
through your everday i386 clone.
(And yes I know you were being sarcastic) :-)
