I wanna see them upgrade the whole thing to intel in a few years!

And it would be great to see one of those 14659.088723.78 terrorflop computers grow obsolete in five years of development!

I'll proberly have more computing power at home in ten years so what are these guys thinking!?

to

something like this:

in little over thirty years...

...and I still think pong is more fun, but that aside, we are losing the race against technology and I guess these 'supercomputers' are a real waste of time and money!

Hug a tree,

Alex.
