With the euro in freefall and the European economy pretty much frozen, this might be a heck a time to do it but HPC house Penguin Computing, which would much rather simply be called Penguin like Apple is now just Apple, is cautiously tiptoeing into the market, mostly through third-party service representation such as Life Technologies and regional resellers like Klassic Computers in the UK and IPS in Germany. It has also built one of the biggest supercomputers ever for Georgia Tech, a Top 100 quad-socket blade system called Myriad with more than 10,000 Opteron cores and 100 teraflop theoretical performance. The beast has over 320TB of storage, 4.5 miles of cable and uses 300 kilowatts of power. Running Linux it will be used for biology research into drugs and cancer.
