"1.64-petaflops for use by scientists and engineers working in areas such as climate modeling, renewable energy, materials science, fusion and combustion."
Oh comon, do you think that there going to use ALL of this storage for science?
I bet there's a few hundred TB worth of pron on there...
I find this article absolutely ridiculous. First they come out saying that childhood aggression and video games are linked, and now this? Me, and many of my teen friends play video games as a stress reliever, a chance to get away from school and the other tiring things in daily life. What there saying might be true in some kids, but definitely not all as they portray it to be. Typical mainstream media.
I, For one, will take part in a test study where the scientists will actually try to learn how to read these memory molecules.
In my memory they will find two main images. Lolcats.com, and pr0nz.
I'm going to get boo'd out of the/. community for this, but here it goes.
For people like me, it doesn't matter whether which OS is the fastest (If this was true, Linux would of won the desktop a long time ago). It matters what applications it can run. I mean, I can't really play Crysis or CoD4 with wine...and I need programs like Itunes and winRAR daily that don't work on Linux even with windows program loaders.
I'm just giving my insight:)
Trolls and Linux fan-boys, you may now post.
The Bond gadget that us geeks need the most, is the power to get women at our fingertips. On a Friday night when were all alone, it would help to have a little more excitement then programming;)
Microsoft shouldn't be giving schools computers,they should be giving these children and teachers there daily needs (Food, Water, Clothing, ect.).
Also, I think Africa should be using Ubuntu as their main OS. For two reasons. One, it's free. Two, we need to break away from the evil Microsoft empire.
Man, I wish we use Ubuntu in High school...were stuck with XP. (Yes, Slashdot has a few 14 year old readers;))

There is no way this is Slashdot. Where are all the Apple/Linux fan boys praising the article?!
Hey, these hiccups help make the internet a better and safer place!...Right?
Do these 7 million out-of-print books include porno mags? I'd love to see Marilyn Monroe pop up while searching the archives!
This is madness!!! This...is...SLASHDOT!

Whoever can get me one of those Crysis nano-suits first wins my vote!
