When we buy a new computer we think at some point that it must be a supercomputer, at least when you compare it to the computer you had prior to the new one. it seems our computers are getting slower, but that is not really the case. What happens is that the software we use on it gets more powerful, which makes the computer struggle more. That’s when we all wish we had access to one of the many supercomputers currently being constructed throughout the world.
