Not to many but they pay real money, with oil holding at $50.00 this would be a great time to make some sales to the oil companies for exploration. There will eventually be a space tourism industry, right now none of the small firms can really afford these supercomputers , but the recent X- prize hype will hopfully put some scare into boeing and areospatial to invest on some new supercomputers. Ofcourse the chinese are already figuring out how to make thier own by buying the components.
