Raspberry Pi supercomputer

I was thinking about this and some team has already went ahead and implemented it. http://phys.org/news/2012-09-raspberry-pi-supercomputer.html Everything is so cool, on how the implementation was done; and even interesting after reading the article was, some of the comments on the page, seriously some people's comments is like, a little kid who flushes the toilet and sees with amazement; and later with adults conversation, raises his hand and says "me, me, me" "i know how the world works, it goes round and round, round and round". :-)

Waiting for Surface to Stand On!

I have been waiting for a #Surface for so long that, I feel like the new gadgets like #iPadMini are just making it hard for me to wait. I feel like once I get the surface, I will feel the notion of sanding on some surface rather feel pad'ed mini side.

Such a confusing dilemma. If anyone has any thoughts please share below. Update: Bought the Your Shape Fitness Evolved 2012, it just seems right to upgrade the 2010 game as I didn't wanted to lose out my game stats. So far from few of the workouts and classes the game seems to work with my schedule and easy to switch plans if needs be.
