(parallel computing) The other type of super computing is known as Grid or Cluster computing which is where you hook up a bunch of Linux or Xserve machines that are connected via Infiniband Hi end networks to perform distributed computing tasks such as Movie rendering and CFD. The US Navy has an XServe set up for CFD on jets as do our engineering friends at Virginia Tech Campus which is capable of 10.2 teraflops which cost 5 million US at time of installation.OK, thanks winmancguy. I've seen some super computer at tomshardware.com article but not types of super computers. | PedalSlammer (8511) | ||

| 568175 | 2007-07-12 21:52:00 | I quite liked the inside. Silly really though, 15 mins for tyre life and 12 mins for petrol at that speed. Assuming you can find somewhere tio drive it that fast. Not exactly practical. |

Not exactly practical. Depends how you look at it - it's by far the most practical car capable of performance like that :nerd: |
