The Altix machines are very nice. We have an Altix 1350 at work and it rocks to see the 320MB of memory I need for my program translate to about 0.1% of the total memory in the machine (64GB). It makes using large in-memory data structures a viable option, rather than having to store the data in a database or a file. Oh, and it runs Linux. Put that on my Christmas wishlist!
