The only info there was about that image:

The Cray-2 supercomputer circa 1987. Packs about all the computing power of a modern iPad.

You know what most people had in 1987? Probably a DOS system running on a 286 or 386. An iPad is would have been a supercomputer then. Also, that machine had an absurd amount of memory bandwidth for the era. That is one reason why it could probably still beat an iPad on most workloads.

thats cray-cray

What can I say? I like this a LOT:



Apparently made by the drinker (so not a product to be purchased yet).

was hoping t the playstation 3 that was barred from export to some countries because it was considered a supercomputer? some macs too?
