Titan, World's Fastest Supercomputer (20 Petaflops)

I suppose it's antivirus program gobbles up 99 percent of it's speed also.

I think they've made this supercomputer in anticipation of Microsoft Office 2013 and it will still be sluggish as hell.

Goodie gum drops! I guess we can tell the guys manning their ballistic missile consoles to go home? Lets just allow Titan to handle strategic defense altogether? Man, they could not write this stuff. This sounds a heck of a lot like Skynet.

The cool thing about technology advancement, is that it's growth is exponential. They basically doubled the hardware and the end product is 10x better than the previous. (Yes, they did add GPUs as well, but still.) This growth happened in one year!

It's really hard to gauge where things will be in 25 years, let alone 5 years. At this exponential rate, it seems irrational where we might be in a decade.. But I can't wait

I bet Skyrim looks GORGEOUS on that BEAST!
180 billion Frames per second baby!

I bet it will be used to design the Iphone 6

Is this also a slap for Intel and ATI?

I mean the world's fastest computer uses AMD and Nvidia
