Real time display of App Store sales on 20 screens from WWDC 2009. This "hyperwall" was located on the 2nd floor lobby of Moscone West and was filmed shortly before the Monday morning keynote. Apple's description of the display: "Over 3,000 apps -- and growing -- are downloaded every minute from the App Store. This is a live feed showing the activity of 20,000 popular apps currently on the store. Every time a customer downloads an app, it's icon lights up (5-min delay). This hyperwall was built using the latest in Apple technology. It's powered by 20 Mac Pro towers running Mac OS X Snow Leopard. It was programmed in Quartz Composer using new OpenCL APIs. And it's shown on 20 synchronized 30-inch Apple Cinema HD Displays."
