Own a piece of the VA Tech Supercomputer
MacMall is selling the individual G5s that were
used to make the Virginia State University supercomputer, or “BigMac” which was ranked third fastest on the planet. The
1100 desktop computhers are being sold since VA Tech is upgrading to Mac’s Xserver machines. They come with dual 2.0GHz
processors, 1GB of memory and a 160GB Harddrive for $2,799. They start shipping next week so if you are one of those
crazy collector types you’d better order fast.
