Big Ben -- the first XT3 system to ship from Cray -- comprises 2,090 processors with an overall peak performance of 10 teraflops: 10 trillion calculations per second.

I like how it has the Steelers' colors

If every person on Earth, about 6.5 billion people, held a calculator and did one calculation per second, they would altogether still be 1,500 times slower than Big Ben.


I like that. Lets try it out!

I'm about 60 mins from pittsburgh. It has it's ups and downs. I'm not a big fan of all the bridges and having to navigate the loops around town. Other than the roads, I'm cool with it.
