I'm about to mess around with Apple's Sidecar again, and am looking forward to the next iteration which looks as though it'll be much more flexible. It reminded me of FX Teleport, a VST wrapper for distributing plugin processing across multiple machines, way back around 2002 (I made the Flash banner for KvR at the time). Funnily enough, I found that using FX Teleport on my Celeron 633MHz machine used as much CPU as the just running the VSTs natively(!)... but I wonder whether things of this kind make more sense now in this day and age.
Edit: probably should have put this in the computer setup section. Oops.

Aha, hadn't heard of that. I did wonder after I posted why the hell I wrote what I did. I guess I was thinking out loud about the possibility of operating systems getting smart, and wifi fast, to the point where devices can automatically distribute processes between them.
I'll check that out though.
