What if Cray builds a HPC device?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Imagine that Cray computer decides to make a personal computer. It has a 150 MHz processor, 200 megabytes of RAM, 1500 megabytes of disk storage, a screen resolution of 1024 x 1024 pixels, relies entirely on voice recognition for input, fits in your shirt pocket and costs $300. What's the first question that the computer community asks?

"Is it PC compatible?"

My first response was "Why does it have to be PC compatible?" I'll use it on its own, provided it has apps I can use. On compatibility, it will have to work with devices like pccards, printers etc.

1024x1024 AND fits in your shirt pocket. I'll get my electron microscope back out I then.

If it fits in your pocket the implication is still PDA. The size is synonymous with it. People what sync and open standards.
The use of "PC" is generally Windows, but is fully interchangeable with Linux, Unix as much as it is with Mac and Amiga.

There are a lot of us that don't use H/PC as laptop replacements - I'm one of them. So long as the sync is there - and it is a good stable junk free sync (Not Palm Desk in other words). I'm happy.

I understand your point... and if Cray released a £160 super computer H/PC - I'd be there

although It'd need a kayboard

Only 150mhz...from a CRAY...
