What pc would be the benchmark equivalent of the Cray-1?

According to the article the Cray-1 peaked at about 250 megaflops .. Single core AMD 64's and P4's ( 2g ?? ) exceed a gigaflop )

Funny I was just thinking about that. I'll be curious as to the answers.

Another good conjecture would be a modern car's computing power.

According to this article : http://blog.modernmechanix.com/2006/07/...79-review-of-the-cray-1-supercomputer/

... a 2.8 P4 hits 2.5 GFLOP/s

... we see a modern cell phone is more powerful than CRAY-1

Amazing...imagine what computers will be like in 30 years if this is the world's fastest computer today...we could be like, "Hey, my space helmet has more computing power than that..."
