|  |  |  | A 12.000 PowerPC CPU Supercomputer (Stella) was recently installed in Groningen, Netherlands. Its mission is to process radiosignals coming from 20.000 simple radio antennaes across Netherlands.
The antennaes are called Lofar (Low Frequency Array) and will be completed in 2008. The information will be sent from the antennaes to the datacenter at 22 Tbit/s today and up to 50 Tbits/s in 2010.

|  |  |  | National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) newly finished PowerPC equipped supercomputer broke speed record with way over 100 TFlops - 135.3 TFlops with the industry-standard LINPACK benchmark.
Pegasos.org has reported earlier about this project which in November - only half finished - set another record.
NNSA has already used its BlueGene/L for scientific purposes:
"Results of scientific importance have already been accomplished with only one-quarter of BlueGene/L. Scientists at LLNL for the first time have performed 16-million-atom molecular dynamics simulations with the highest accuracy inter-atomic potentials necessary to resolve the key physical effects to successfully model pressure induced rapid resolidification in Tantalum."

|  |  |  | Our very own Johan Gulldén bought a pre-owned PowerBook G4 which he immediately overclocked from 400 to 500 MHz. He did this when he came to PUSH 2005. You can read his review here.
Thanks Johan!

This edition of PUSH was even nicer then the the last one, and a springboard to more comming.
More participators, and AmigaOne, MacinTosh and Pegasos users.
Thanks to Göran Boklund we this time also had the best speaker equipment you can think of.
