In an attempt to at least post something OTHER than WWDC coverage today, we have for your perusal the fastest computer around: Roadrunner.


Weighing in at a hefty $133,000,000 IBM’s effort boasts 12,960 “improved” Cell processors (PS3′s to take over the world?) and a few thousand Opterons.

The machine is apparently for military use only, so don’t expect to see any 3DMark scores or l33t overclocking any time soon !
