supercomputer Explanation: you were right. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 4 hrs (2008-11-08 22:48:19 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- It's a more or less meaningless expression, just as "superstar" is; but people use it, and our job [sigh] is to translate what we're given. To quote from Wikipedia: "The term supercomputer itself is rather fluid, and today's supercomputer tends to become tomorrow's ordinary computer". For once, Wikipedia got it right :) |
