Jim,

I saw that. Did you see the price? $26 million a pop. Isn't that a little steep?

For the world's fastest supercomputer? That sounds like quite a bargain to me. Do you know how much the Intel system at Sandia Labs cost, or the SGI system at Los Alamos?

Anyway, the manufacturing cost for that FPGA system is probably under $50,000.
