Virginia Tech cluster awaits Xserve G5s

The world-famous Apple G5-based supercomputer at the Virginia Polytechnic and State University is offline and will soon disappear from the Top 500 supercomputer list, where it currently sits in third place.

The 1,100 Mac G5s have been sold!

Not to panic though. The cluster will be back, bigger and better than ever. Virginia Tech is currently awaiting the factory-load of Xserve G5s to populate its vast acreage of rack space.
