India buys new squeaky toy

Posted by sengan on Tuesday August 04, 1998 @10:38AM from the please-don't-make-more-weapons-with-it dept.

India's built itself a new supercomputer, the Param 10 000, for $12.5 million. It'll be the main node of a fast network allowing research labs, academic institutions and companies to use it. There's no clear data as to the computational power it will first reach, but it could reach 1000 gigaflops... How large a Beowolf cluster would be needed to reach that?
