What’s amazing is that 99% of people are reading this article on a supercomputer. Likely one that fits in their pocket. If the technology trend continues like it has for the past 70 years or so, we’ll probably have Cheyenne-equivalent computers on our desktops, if not our pockets, in 10-20 years.

If you can afford to be patient, you can get Cheyenne a lot cheaper and a lot smaller.
