Olli-Pekka,
Look up a parallel Mandelbrot fractal generator. I remember doing one as
a homework assignment in college. Very visual way of showing the
performance improvement of adding more cores.

We're in the process of developing a demo Beowulf cluster in the spirit of Tiny

based on 10 Intel i7 small-form-factor boards with a fairly good per-core
compute capability.
I'd be interested to hear if you have some ideas (or even pointers to code!)
for demonstrating HPC concepts to the general public. Especially having an
element of interactivity would be nice.
Couple of low-hanging fruits that we are already looking at are
Blender/povray-rendering and porting the existing Tiny Titan codes.
Best regards,
