Well I guess I should have reworded that a bit I wasn't exactly thinking about a room full of Crays.
Well, according to the second link, the number 5 machine/system is a cluster of Linux boxes.
Given that, *any* cluster of decent machines could probably gain the #1 spot - it would just take a lot to get there.

-Aww Damn.

Okay let me reword it again I didn't mean a clustered computing system of any sort also including super computers.
Can you imagine a rack stuffed full of 1U XServe Dual/2GHz/PPC970s that were all clustered?
Re: Re: to all mac dreamers
iPodOnly tried to troll the second time last night not today after the WWDC keynote so he's probably choking on a big turd right now either that or denying that Macs are faster or saying they are overpriced even though they are a Pro computer.

There aren't super computers that aren't clustered, at least I don't think so. All that I've all seen are huge rooms filled with racks of processors and memory. Maybe not clustered in the way the linux boxes are, but there aren't any supercomputers that are gonna sit on your desk or even fit in your garage.

Next month the G5 will be the faster consumer computer that the public can buy.
ddtlm: "A dual Opteron typically would have no external FSB and sport quad-channel DDR, which crushes the 1ghz bus and currently unknown RAM setup" I'm not sure where anyone can go and configure nor buy from a major manufacture/retailer (Dell, HP), nor on the aftermarket. Then again I went to all the computer stores in the College/Spadina downtown Toronto area and non were able to have any Athlon64 or Opteron64's in stock nor order them. A linux server on the market that contains them, I'm unaware of.
This ipodnly person posted in this thread that his girlfriend has a Dual G4 700Mhz: didn't anyone else notice this and realize that Apple never made a dual 700Mhz G4? it was a Dual 500 & 800Mhz. anyway.
Why do pple defend a platform so much?
I guess its because they spent their hard earned dollar on it and how others in this world respond to them (i.e. How many of you told a long time diehard PC user that your going to buy a Mac for the first time and so their eyes roll and the conversation with non others to follow die!?). Also the majority of computer users, PC, in this world have an adverse affect on the Mac users at work, home, and roaming about. Then again I do remember Airport having a huge affect on the PC world, so do I got that last point backwards?

If the G5 is the fasted consumer tower that the public can buy, why isn't the powerbook the fastest consumer laptop that the consumer can buy?
