the new quick path and Snow Leopard will allow for GPU procession power to be used for non graphical tasks. In essence you get another very powerful CPU which hardly costs anything.

LAter edit:

Quote from Apple.com:
I guess i've heard about it, but didn't know there was an useful implementation available, thanks for the info.
Our servers do a lot of video-recoding (converting uploaded files to Flash Video) and it's quite an intensive task for the CPU's to handle.
Might be worth to look at in the future. (We're running Ubuntu Server on all of them btw)
