Neat!

DARPA should be an incubator and a technology driver. Challenges should be part of the picture, and maybe a bigger part than they've played in the past.

Another story in the June Spectrum magazine (not online unfortunately) covers the attempt to build a 403 GFlop supercomputer at [link|http://www.flashmobcomputing.org/|"FlashMob 1"]. They "only" made it 180 GFlops (depending on how you count success on Linpack).

Cheers,
Scott.
