I think it would run Nightmist PDQ, but lag would still be decided by the capacity of the cables connecting it to the Internet.
Main crits:
Crane
Europa

Either way, they had to construct a cooling system around it using Nitro-glycerine (the stuff that freezes roses so you can shatter them with a hammer).
When they did it without the custom cooling system (just to see what happened), it burned a hole through the mother-board.

Also Cool. What kind of clock speed is that though does it say?

and prophet, i don't think there is a clock speed on supercomputers per se. as i recall they use lots of processors. i remember some college class made a supercomputer out of G5's, and those had something like 2ghz processors, and when it was done it could compete with other supercomputers fairly well.

i guess it is called "liquid Nitrogen" the same stuff that froze the t-1000 in terminator 2: judgement day.Either way, they had to construct a cooling system around it using Nitro-glycerine (the stuff that freezes roses so you can shatter them with a hammer).
nitro glycerine is explosive, so why would they put something explosive and unstable next to a vibrating, heating machine???

even though putting nitro glycerine on a melting hot cpu would make a nice big explosion I wouldn't want to miss

And I'm not a techie-kind of person. I don't know what exactly they were doing but they were making the processor work um-teen times faster than it should. It was just fun to watch.
