The IBM machine, codenamed Roadrunner, has been shown to run at "petaflop speeds", the equivalent of one thousand trillion calculations per second. _________________________ you dont see me. i am not really here.

I have taken note of the term "petaflop" for addition to Program's IT vocabulary. $;\)$ Much love, Larry _________________________ Nobody living can ever stop me As I go walking my freedom highway.
