Today's Blog, More Computers.


Students use computers in a lab(usually connected to a local network that connects to the internet.) to work on homework or study web references. Computers are essential for modern schools/education.


Computers can be very small, like this Pogoplug Personal Computer that is the size of a common charger plug. Something that is also commonly lost... for me.




Is currently TOP500 #1 Fastest supercomputer, developed for US Department of Energy. Cost US$133-million. Used off the shelf computer parts, AMD Opterons and IBM Cell processors, running open source software Red Hat Linux.
