I was at a meeting at SC'06 where the folks from various large
institutions in the US were bemoaning the fact that there was all this
money for petaflop hardware available but none for programmers or
algorithm development to make apps scale out to the systems.
Just because the scientists say it's a good thing to have doesn't mean
the US government funding people will listen to them..
