QuoteNASA's new SGI Altix system is expected to be installed in August at the NASA Advanced Supercomputing facility at the Ames Research Center. The new system will be the first supercomputer to operate 2,048 processor cores and 4TB of memory under a single copy of Linux(R) -- creating the largest Linux single system image (SSI) in the world.

I give it 2 years before they shrink the thing down to the size of a usb thumb drive, install it in our skulls and call it "Terrorist provention" - And another half year before someone makes an indi documentary about it.

PnkStrbB.exe would still give CPU lag even on that system tbh.

you wouldn't even be able to feel the cpu lag due to the PnkStrbA service stopping your pc from booting.

ZING!

i'd be afraid starting it up would cause it to boot in a negative amount of seconds and tear a hole through the space-time continuum.
