SGI supercomputer: Two records in one day

What? Do you ever read articles or click the links?: Had you read earliewr this week or clicked the link in this article, you would know that the 2048 CPU's were part of an upgrade of four additional boxes with 512 processors each that were not yet installed when the tests were done.

Not defective, just not installed yet. THe system was purchased, delivered, installed and then planned for upgrade. Prior to completing the upgrade they decided to benchmark so as to get an idea of what to expect after. Sho' 'nuff, they got exactly what they expected.

No news except to say nothing went wrong. I know you hate Intel --your euphemisms are getting tired and old-- and MS but can you just read, comprehend and move on. We all hate Intel and MS. Even Axy.

Okay, maybe not Axy and a good many others. The point is, read the article and understand it first and then comment.; Posted by: The King's Servant Posted on: 10/27/04 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
