in the FPGA arena, sure.  I don't think it will have a huge impact
on clusters, generally, simply because it still requires the large
investment of time in porting your code to an FPGA.  for people serious
enough to take that plunge, I wonder whether it matters that the 
host is a nice, familiar off-the-shelf environment...
