A Supercomputer in Every Garage!
From [link|http://www.pbs.org/cringely/pulpit/pulpit20011227.html|Cringley's latest]:
While my supercomputer won't be quite as fast as KLAT2, it will be a lot smaller and cheaper at right around 24 gigaflops, which is comparable to a top-of-the-line Cray T90 supercomputer from 1998. And while that Cray cost millions, my out-of-pocket supercomputer budget is $6,000.
I can't stop smiling.
