DO YOU KNOW THE WORLD'S FASTEST MACHINE?????????????????



YES WHAT YOU THINK????????????????




THE SUPER COMPUTER IS IT?????????




NO FRIENDS





THE WORLD'S FASTEST MACHINE IS ""ASCII WHITE"" YES THIS IS THE WORLD'S FASTEST MACHINE.

THERE ARE 600 MILLION USERS IN THE WORLD OF INTERNET WITH 30 MILLION SERVERS NOW A DAYS.THIS (ASCII WHITE) IS THE GIGANTIC MACHINE WHICH CAN AFFORD TO HAVE 600 MILLION USERS IN SINGLE PEACE OF IT NOW AND 1 ASCII WHITE'S CAPACITY IS EQUAL TO 30 MILLION SERVERS PLUS MORE OF TEN TIMES OF SAME 30 MILLION SERVER'S LOAD.
JUST IMAGINE IT'S CAPACITY AND IT'S EFFICIENCY REALLY UNBELIEVEABLE ISN'T IT

You can verify my post by checking the link below

I am also pasteing here one paragraph of above link as a proof
"Gannon points out that the biggest supercomputer on the planet, IBM's ASCII White, has been equated to 30,000 to 50,000 desktop computers, so large companies have even more power just sitting there."

I Think this is enough for you

Remember it is also a branch of super computer but a lot faster then conventional super computer

IBM today announced that the company has built the world's fastest supercomputer -- capable of 12 trillion calculations per second -- more than three times faster than the most powerful computer in existence today. Known as ASCI White, the RS/6000 SP supercomputer covers an area the size of two basketball courts and will be used by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) program to help ensure the safety and reliability of the nation's nuclear weapons stockpile without real-world testing.
The system, developed by IBM under the DOE's ASCI (Accelerated Strategic Computing Initiative) Partnership, is powered by 8,192 copper microprocessors, and contains six trillion bytes, or terabytes (TB), of memory with more than 160 TB of IBM disk storage capacity -- enough to hold six times the entire book collection of the Library of Congress. Delivery of the ASCI White system from IBM facilities in Poughkeepsie, N.Y. to DOE's Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in Livermore, California will require 28 tractor trailer trucks
