Hmm well sure makes me feel inadequate about my set up, lucky for humanity I don't have to run nuclear test simulations on my machine then I suppose. This definitely represents an mammoth achievement in supercomputing and a breakthrough which can only be a good thing. Just one question... When can I buy one from PC World?

Oh wow, so much for my dream of owning a Cray. Ah well. At least I can get a cray and still tell others I have a relatively fast computer. And watch them laugh at me when they see it takes up a lot of room.

A computer once beat me at chess, but it was no match for me at kick boxing.
