IBM (NYSE: IBM) announced at the start of the annual SC supercomputing show Saturday that it will now offer commercial configurations of its Blue Gene supercomputer, just days after its prototype configuration, which has been built for Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, took the high-performance computing crown with a speed of over 70 teraflops a second.

Cool computing in the cloud In 2002, a couple of hardware geeks thrust a crazy, fresh idea on the computing community. Chris Hipp, a co-founder of blade maker RLX, and Wu-chun Feng, then a researcher at Los Alamos National Laboratory, concocted a very powerful cluster with servers based on laptop chips from Transmeta. The cluster failed to outperform similar Xeon-based systems, but it could run in a desert warehouse with no special cooling and with less failures than other Los Alamos boxes protected by very expensive air conditioning systems.â¦
