IBM System x 3755 systems based on AMD Opteron technology will be deployed in conjunction with IBM BladeCenter H systems with Cell technology.

Ooo I wonder how many CPUs this thing is gonna have?:Q

How long till PETA files a lawsuit saying they can't use the word peta in petaflop?

PETA? who are they?

PETA stands for "People Eating Tasty Animals". They are an organization opposed to any action that results in the unecessary pain and suffering of non-animal entities such as super computers that don't crunch DC projects, programmable calculators that are used just for basic arithmetic, and Honda Accords with "go faster" stickers and useless fart pipes and ground effects.
