"a humming barrier of 700 Apple Power Mac G5s, all meticulously stacked, one atop the other, in a U shape 8 feet high and 100 feet long"

It doesn't go into the details of restoration because of trade secrets, but apparently this guy is one of the masters of the art.

Neat. Superpowered image restoration for film. That way we can all enjoy the movies later on in life. When the "old" films that DTS is looking at are all-digital, what will they do then?
