How would you like to pay the bill for 12,660 KW of power consumption for Japan’s #2 Fujitsu?

You mean the “K” computer? yeah that’s nuts. I wonder if thats for the computer only, or for the entire facility?

You'd have to pump out one hell of a lot of Nigerian banking spams to keep up!

Assume about 8 cents per KWH and you probably don’t shut the thing down:

$0.08 x 12660 KW x 8760 Hours per Year = $8,872,128.00 per Year

Peanuts. Our government spends that in about 10 minutes.
