Government unveils world's fastest computer.
What's kind of scary is the fact that it's being used to "maintain the nation's nuclear weapons stockpile."
Roadrunner? C'mon, that's the coolest name out government could come up with?

Do you think it should've been called Crash_Davis, Crash_Davis?

To put the computer's speed in perspective, if every one of the 6 billion people on earth used a hand-held computer and worked 24 hours a day it would take them 46 years to do what the Roadrunner computer can do in a single day.
Wow.

I heard about it on the radio--apparently it's the size of a large house, at 6,000 sq. ft.

This, along with the gizmo that might open up a black hole that implodes the Earth, are probably the worst ideas ever.
