He's talking about large 32m and above threads, Metaphors quad-quad workstation/server board is king at that.

Has any one thought of trying (or tried) to get NASA to set something up outside the International Space Station.

even if we could produce temperatures below 0 kelvin, wouldn't you not be able to start the computer since the electrons would be frozen?

That would be impossible, theoretically or otherwise.

Ignoring below-0 conditions since as mentioned that is absolutely impossible, that is basically correct. Nothing would happen, since the CPU would have no energy.

I am fully aware that it is impossible, we can get insanely close but never there.

I'd like to see that 32m score, nothing like friendly competition on HWC forums eh? and yes, I did mean wPrime, I keep forgetting that they're completely different algorithms
