Reminds me of an old joke.
Cray Computers (big super computer manufacturer) builds a computer the
size of wrist watch with 100GB memory, 1 terabyte of disk storage,
running multiple processors at 100GHz each, and able to produce and sell
them for $1000 a piece.
Cray did build such a machine in 1984.
The problem was that the powersupply was the size of an aircraft
carier and cost 48 billion euros. Then there was the cooling tower...
What is the first question everyone asks? "Does it run
Windows?"
It would have, but when compiled the compiler eliminated WindowZ as a loop
with unused output.
