IBM Breaks Own Supercomputer Record: 133 Trillion instructions per second.

I had a boss like that once. On top of that he was a fat, drunk, 49ers fan. I hated his guts.

133 Trillion Instructions per second is pretty lame.

My wife can do twice that when she gets to yelling at me ;-)

Wow. That's 4,194,288,000,000,000,000,000 instructions per year. That's over twice the current record for instructions per year. That record was held by my wife and mostly involved taking out the trash and stopping at Starbucks.
