IBM's new SuperComputers
A Reuters' article on IBM's newest supercomputers.

ASCI Purple will run at 100 teraflops, or 100 trillion calculations per second, eight times faster than its current supercomputer ASCI White and at a speed equivalent to the human brain, IBM said.

Hmm... most days my brain doesn't seem to be doing 100 trillions calculations per second, but maybe that's just me.
