The supercomputer is one thing that no one can have for a personal computer until now. The computer that is so awesome and so powerful and is fast and there is no other compared to it is now comes in a personal computer. This computer is 250 times faster than the average PC and it will cost you around £4,000. The Tesla supercomputer is beyond the reach of most consumers, but is expected to revolutionise the way scientists and medical professionals carry out their work. This computer will allow doctors to process the results of brain and body scans much more quicker then before resulting in letting know patients within hours instead of days if they have a tumor. Supercomputer were thought to be a massive system made of thousands of machines taking an entire room and costly millions of pounds to build and maintain. David Kirk, chief scientist at NVIDIA, the American company which has designed the new technology, said: "Pretty much anything that you do on your PC that takes a lot of time can be accelerated with this." "These supercomputers can improve the time it takes to process information by 1,000 times. These computers and its technology will make every home computer faster and better in the future but the computers went on sale to British customers yesterday and will initially be sold to universities and to the scientific and research community; so the rest of the public will have too wait. I think that is awesome for these computers to have so much technology that they are making personal supercomputers. I think this technology will catch on with the public and the demand for a faster computer will come up. So I believe that soon the supercomputer will show up in homes all over the world. It is also that these computers are already helping out in hospitals and for schools. This will have a huge impact and I want them it keep working on this to better the world.
