    • Abstract:
      The article offers information concerning the public reaction on the plan to create a desktop supercomputer that could process huge amounts of data. Jon Stiles, director of campus technology at the Rocky Mountain College of Art and Design in Denver, Colorado, states that the supercomputer would be a godsend for students and artist who rely on computers in the creation of high-resolution digital pictures and movies. He adds that the supercomputer would revolutionize the animation department. Uzi Vishkin, a professor at the A. James Clark School of Engineering, states that through the technology the energy use should not be a problem anymore.
