Supercomputers are defined to be the fastest line of computers. Contrary to mainframes and microcomputers, supercomputers are dedicated to execute only a few programs simultaneously. This is to avoid compromising the speed needed for tasks requiring a lot of processing speed. Among the functions of supercomputers are weather forecasting, high-end graphic animations, dynamic calculations, nuclear power researches, and fuel exploration.
The speed of supercomputers is measured in FLOPS (Floating Point Operations Per Second). Before, supercomputers are stuck to what is called “Petaflop Barrier” or A thousand teraflops. However, in June 2008, the “Petaflop Barrier” has been shredded by IBM’s Roadrunner installed at DOE’s Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL). Today, there exists two supercomputers breaking the petaflop barrier.
Holding on to the No. 1 spot as the world fastest computer running in 1105.00 Teraflops is IBM’s Roadrunner found in Los Alamos National Laboratory, USA. Second place is the second teraflop barrier-breaker with a speed of 1059.00 Teraflops is Cray XT5 of Cray Research at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, USA. Third spot is running in 825.50 Teraflops called JUGENE of IBM located at Jülich Research Centre, Germany. Fourth place is Pleiades of SGI based in NASA/Ames Research Center, USA with a speed of 487.01 Teraflops. Fifth post is Blue Gene/L by IBM installed at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, USA running in 478.20 Teraflops. Sixth placer is called Kraken by Cray Research found in National Institute for Computational Sciences, USA with a speed of 463.30 Teraflops. Seventh place holder is IBM’s Intrepid running on 458.61 Teraflops at Argonne National Laboratory, USA. In eighth position is called Ranger by Sun Microsystems located in Texas Advanced Computing Center, USA with a speed of 433.20 Teraflops. IBM’s Dawn is in ninth place with its 415.70 Teraflops speed installed in Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, USA. The top 10 supercomputer as of ISC09 conference on June 23, 2009 at Hamburg, Germany is called JUROPA by Groupe Bull located in Jülich Research Centre, Germany.

What’s the Right Desktop For You?
With so many desktop computers today, how do you know which is the right one for you? Choosing a desktop can be dizzying with the choices available. The different specs of each of these can give you a hard time deciding. With the advancement of computers today, a particular desktop might be outdated very quickly so you really need to determine the best features out of the options available.
What you need to do first is to decide what you need the computer for. It includes what you’re going to do with your desktop, whether you do games, watch movies, and so forth. To be safe, you should consider the desktops in mid-ranges when it comes to their specifications. You only need the powerful ones if you intend to use software that requires heavy specifications. You can perform a search first in the internet if you still don’t know what you want, there is a lot of information you can find there using the search engines we have. The common things you need to consider aside from the hardware and the specification of a certain desktop are the things like warranty, technical support, upgrades, and the quality of each component. A quality part such as the keyboard and mouse can make you comfortable even if you work for hours, so make sure you have those quality ones.
You also need to consider all the “extras”: examples are the DVD burner, more USB ports, and a webcam although they are not that necessary for your desktop, theycan still give easiness and enjoyment while you do your work. If you’re willing to pay extra amount then why not include them.
Before making a decision, list the entire brand you want for the components of your desktop and compare prices and quality with what’s available in the market. Do these and you will get the best value out of your budget, as well as a desktop just right for you which will give you comforts while working.

The Fastest Best-Selling Desktop Computer Processor Ever
This is really a jaw-dropping speed processor a computer can ever have. I am talking about the AMD’s Athlon X2 Dual-Core QL-64. It belongs to the AMD’s X2 multi-core processor family with an awesome CPU speed of 2.16 GHz. It is equipped with the 65nm AMD’s manufacturing technology but with a smaller wattage rate of 35 watts. It is definitely the fastest computer processor these days.
Athlon X2 Dual-Core QL-64 has two separate CPU cores on a single die. Each core is running on 2.16 GHz speed. The standard multiplier for determining the overall speed of a processor is 1.8. So when two cores are running together, Athlon X2 Dual-Core QL-64 can have an astounding speed of 1.8 X 2.16 = 3.88 GHz. You could barely feel any buffering or lagging even when you are running on different high-end multi-thread software applications all at the same time.
Athlon X2 Dual-Core QL-64 processor bus speed can also reach around 3600 MHz. Of course, the motherboard controls the bus speed so it must meet with the CPU’s bus speed for optimum performance. Bus speed is the rate at which computer processor can transfer or process information (with different computer parts like motherboard and RAM) per second. Typical bus speed for motherboard would be 4000 MHz and RAM capacity of 4 GB.
Athlon X2 Dual-Core QL-64 has a shared L2 cache memory of 1000 KB (1 BM). The CPU static L1 cache can store information at 128 KB. When this L1 cache is consumed upon computer operation, L2 cache can store up to 1000 KB of data for processing and file swapping. With Athlon X2 Dual-Core QL-64 wattage rate of 35 watts, it reduces the chance of having processor overheat. It also consumes power at a lesser rate almost half of common Intel multi-core processors.

How to Troubleshoot a Printer
A printer is a peripheral that converts a soft copy document into a hard copy document. This device is very much helpful for reports and the like since this would produce a tangible document that can be viewed even without a computer. But what is the use of a printer when it is not working? Here are some basic steps on how to troubleshoot a printer.
First, the printer should be plugged on to a power supply. Check the power ratings before plugging it into a power supply source. The power ratings are usually seen at the back or bottom of the printer. (Caution: Don’t plug the cord when the maximum power rating is less than the power supply source. Example: Plugging a 110V printer to a 220 power supply will damage the printer). After inserting the cord in the power supply source, check the power indicator if it lights. If not, press the on button. This should make the printer power up. If this does not help, contact the manufacturer regarding this issue.
If the printer does not print the document, first, check the printer if it is the default printer. This can be checked by going to the control panel and open printers and faxes (for XP). The default printer is the checked printer (sometimes labeled as the default printer). If the printer being used is not the default printer, right click the printer that is being used and select “set as default”. If the printer is not included in printers and faxes folder, the printer needs to be installed which is described on the printer’s manufacturing handout. Find the installation process and follow it step by step.
If all of these do not solve the issue, refer to the printer’s handbook for more tips on troubleshooting the printer.

Free Your Head from Headaches: Perform Computer Maintenance
Computer equipment maintenance is very necessary to have your computer equipment work efficiently, have it run smoothly. There are a several ways of doing computer maintenance but there are some other ways that are missed. Here is the complete checklist to make the computer maintenance at its fullest.
The things that should be kept in mind are tasks that include backing up, setting up firewalls, keeping computer healthy, resolving power issues, putting a stop to spying, and keeping away from trouble.
Backing Up: Any document that you create on an external drive should be kept safe with backups using other external drives such as USB. However, you should also provide backup for important data or any files saved in your computer hard disk. In case you have to reinstall, also keep backups on computer programs to avoid downloading these programs again and waste a lot of your time. The frequency of providing backups depends on how often you make changes to your documents. Software drivers and operating system disks should be kept in safe place that is moisture-free and easily accessed.
Setting Up Firewalls:
Firewalls are responsible in keeping your computer away from programs that would enable others to access your computer. Hence, it is termed as the “locked gate” for computer hard drive. This can be set up with the use of internet security software such as Norton and others.

Keeping Your Computer Healthy: The best way of keeping your computer healthy is to install a good antivirus software. Often, aside from firewall, this also comes with when availing Internet Security software. The antivirus program scans the files stored in your hard disk and even other external disks and email to detect if they are infected with viruses or worms. This way, you can decide whether to open the file or email message or not because it will give you an alert message and sound. Of course, only nuts would open a virus-infected files or email messages. Update your computer regularly by activating the virus scanning. You can actually set the scanning automatically by setting Automatic Updates.
Power Issues: Electrical surges can damage your computer so it is always recommended to use an excellent power surge protector. In buying one, you should me cautious of surge protectors with MOV or metal oxide varistor because it damages any time. It might be cheap but you put your entire home in risk of fire.
Putting a Stop to Spying: Spyware programs are recommended to have installed in your computer to avoid other parties who are remotely monitoring your computer secretly. Spywares can be downloaded from different online sources; however, choose only the ones that are recommended by computer experts. If you don’t know one, you may try asking the good guys in computer equipment rental shops in your area.
Keeping Away from Trouble: You should also be cautious enough when downloading any data forms. Some have viruses, spywares and Trojan worms in them. Downloadable files from unconfirmed sources are potentially damaging so better keep away from them.

Computer Maintenance can be Fun
We usually think of computer equipment maintenance as another burden or an addition to our household chores. Like any other household chores, computer maintenance is also a requirement to keep it running smoothly and prevent computer problems that may arise any time. However, this kind of mentally can be changed if you know enough about how computer works.
The computer equipment maintenance can be done in a lot more different ways. You can have automatic updates, website updates, and with the use of utilities.
Automatic Updates: I don’t know if computer owners find it fun seeing their computer updating on its own. But generally, the task of setting up the computer updates such as anything that comprises the operating systems (like Microsoft Windows, Internet Security like firewall and antivirus software) is fun to watch. Your mind would think how fabulously technology works. It is a threat not to update the versions of your internet security software and antivirus. If your computer is often used for downloading data and many types of files, it is advisable to have it updated as often as possible.
Windows Update can be done periodically with Internet Explorer browser. It automatically detects latest versions of the currently installed components of Windows.
With Windows XP Home Edition, you can also automate the critical updates by setting it up in the Control Panel. Just go to System then click Automatic Updates so that you can modify the frequency and time of updating.

Website Updates: Automating the software updates can be done by checking the respective manufacturers’ site. Going to the Help menu of the software manufacturer is the easiest and most doable way of getting the things done. You will be directed to a page containing the instructions on how to set up the automation of the updating of software versions.
Using Utilities: It is crucially important to have your computer be updated of its components. This is to keep the bad guys away and those who use it. Some internet security software is composed of important tools such as firewall, antivirus, porn-blocker, spyware detector, pop-up blocker, and spam filter. This kind of utility is a great help to keep your computer free from computer viruses, spyware and other things that are potentially computer destroyer.
Of all kinds of computer maintenance performed for computer, defragmenting is not really necessary. The recent review from PC World (a computer magazine) declared that defragmenting does not improve computer performance anymore. Defragmenting is done to gather up the pieces of files and places them together in one adjacent location of the computer hard drive.
