HP will supply the supercomputer, consisting of 1,400 of Intel's next-generation Itanium processors, code named McKinley and Madison. The computer will have 1.8TB of memory and 170TB of disk space, the statement said. One terabyte is one million megabytes

Jesus... that is one GIGANTOR computer :thumbsup:

Yeah, Tux is the Linux mascot. You can find out all about him here: http://www.sjbaker.org/tux/

Topics on the page range from, Why a Penguin? Why the name Tux? And anything else you can think of. Many of the stuff on the page is right from the Linux creator, Linus Torvalds (he likes penguins) After reading, you'lll notice that Linux is supposed to be fun and laid back. That's what Tux is for :D
