Number of supercomputers, by country: link here.


Latest and largest: Oak Ridge, Tennessee.


Startling numbers:
  • designers: many but only a few "big-name"
  • foundries: many, but probably less than number of "big-name" designers. I can think of two or three of any importance
  • lithograph equipment: one

Countries: ranked by computer technology.  US is number 1; mainland China is #3. Can you guess, #2?
