Microwulf Supercomputer, from Geekologie

Are you as jealous as I am? Geekologie shows off the unattractive looking but still irresistible Microwulf Supercomputer, a staggering technical display by Calvin College professor Joel Adams and senior Tim Brom. This mess of wires, plastic, and metal boasts 26 gigaflops for less than $2,500 in 2006, all running on one power outlet. Today, the same set up would cost $1,256 (you still need one power outlet). ClusterMonkey has a detailed overview of the computer as well as Microwulf’s official site.
