What is the fastest CPU on the market today?
Judging computer performance by GHz alone is a common misconception. The clock speed of a CPU (the GHz) has nothing to do with relative performance of the processor… except when comparing it to other processors in the same product line. What I mean here is that you cannot compare a 3.0 Ghz Intel P4 to [...]

HowStuffWorks “What is the world’s fastest computer?”
To put things in perspective, let’s start with the computer sitting on your desk — the computer you use on a day-to-day basis to browse the Internet, handle spreadsheets, create documents, etc. Most people have something like a Pentium computer running Windows, or a Macintosh. A computer like this can execute approximately 100 million instructions [...]
Japanese Computer Is World’s Fastest, as U.S. Falls Back
SAN FRANCISCO, April 19 — A Japanese laboratory has built the world’s fastest computer, a machine so powerful that it matches the raw processing power of the 20 fastest American computers combined and far outstrips the previous leader, an I.B.M. -built machine. The achievement, which was reported today by an American scientist who tracks the [...]
HowStuffWorks “What’s the world’s fastest supercomputer used for?”
Protein molecules are the building blocks of the human body. The world’s fastest supercomputer will probably never be known as the world’s fastest supercomputer. RIKEN’s MDGrape-3 is the first machine to break the petaflop barrier — that’s 1 quadrillion calculations (floating-point operations, to be specific) per second — and it’s three times faster than the [...]

Good question UM… Also, you have to be associated/log in to Facebook to use this (i see its temporary but I cant log in to FB at the office)? Are we sure this person isnt a spammer with applicable content? lol.. I removed my post as I wanted to check something my original post stated [...]
Your fastest Internet in the world is found in Berkeley, CA
If you want the fastest average broadband speed in the world, don’t move to Japan. Instead, buckle up your Birkenstocks and pile into the VW Bus, because it’s time for a road trip to Berkeley, California, home of the fastest average Internet speeds on earth. This nugget of data comes courtesy of the most recent [...]

The Cities With the Fastest Internet Connections
What do South Koreans, Romanians, and the Swiss all have in common? On average, they enjoy faster Internet connection speeds than Americans, according to the quarterly “State of the Internet Report” issued by Akamai, a technology company in Cambridge, Mass., that sells fast data delivery to businesses and other enterprises that put content online. The [...]
IBM triples performance of World’s Fastest Computer and breaks the “Quadrillion” Barrier
The world of computing continually throws up feats that are difficult to comprehend. If the world’s fastest car or world’s tallest building were suddenly to be outperformed by a factor of three, we’d be incredulous, yet such quantum leaps have become routine in the world of computing. IBM’s new Blue Gene/P is the second generation [...]
