.about 6 years ago a buddy of mine found a mint A4000T with PPC card in mint condition at a building he was working at just laying there pretty next to the garbage bin:insane:

Why does this never happen to me? :lol:

He then had the cheek to say 'but yes, in this day and age no-one would seriously use one of those let alone call it a computer', at this point I promptly told him to shut his ruddy cakehole do his inspection job and bugger off..

Which is no doubt why he's doing such a technically demanding job as working out how much money needs to be screwed out of you based on the size of your house. I would have told him he was paid to tick the relevant boxes and if I wanted technical advice from someone totally unqualified to give it, I'd ring my ISP's helpline.

Oh wow, you sure did tell off 21 years ago.  Man I bet 1989 is feelin' the burn from that one.

HEAR THAT, PAST?  YOU SUCK!

:roflmao:

The Cray-1 and Cray-2 supercomputers used proprietary vector processors. The 68040 wasn't released until 1990 or so whereas the Cray-2 was released in about 1985. It was already doing almost 2 GFLOPS then, so it's hard to imagine a machine based on 68040's trumping that.
