current price is $100,000
edit: looks like it sold for $480k
If all of Lenny’s users pool together it should cost just, like, $1000 each. We can each rotate our use to 3.7 days a year.
But can it run crysis?
Fuck that, run Doom on it
It’s not a PS3.
What’s amazing is that 99% of people are reading this article on a supercomputer. Likely one that fits in their pocket. If the technology trend continues like it has for the past 70 years or so, we’ll probably have Cheyenne-equivalent computers on our desktops, if not our pockets, in 10-20 years.
If you can afford to be patient, you can get Cheyenne a lot cheaper and a lot smaller.
