No, ovo je jos zanimljivije:

"And then IBM still has the Quasar project lurking in the background, where it's combining Power and Cell chips. Stand back, friends. Stand back"

Svaka cast, sistem koji prave za NCSA stvarno zvuci eco-friendly:

Just some rough numbers because I'm bored... If each processor uses 50W, that would be 1.945MW for the processors. 26PB storage at 1.5TB/disk (we won't even consider RAID, controllers, etc) = 17,333 disks at 8W each = 139KW. So just considering the processors and non-RAID storage, that's 2MW. I think we can all agree that's a massive lowball number since it doesn't include other system components, RAID, controllers, AC-to-DC loss, etc... And then think of the A/C needed to pump out 2MW worth of heat in the summer.

Ne znam, ja sam samo citirao, nisam proveravao brojeve.

Amerika ne mora da brine o ekologiji posto nije nista potpisala od ugovora tako da na zalost to sa eko pada u vodu.. Zamisli koliko bi se filtera za dimnjake fabrika moglo da napravi od "viska" para.. e to bi bilo eco.. ovako...

Amerika mora da brine o ekologiji jer im se spremaju severni uragani i poplave zbog preterane emisije CO2 koja izlazi baš iz njihovih auspuha.
