Computers like this tend to be a bit harder to appreciate, because they're typically just a matter of how much money you can keep throwing at the problem, and, whether the power grid can keep up. It is, however, impressive to be more than double the speed of #2. I'm guessing a lot of this is because of being x86, whereas Fugaku was ARM. Fun fact - Frontier appears to have about 600K CPU cores, whereas Fugaku has a whopping 7.6 million.

Out mobile phones are faster than any supper computer from the 80's witch is rather insane to think about it. That said I do not think processing power progressing as fast as it was from 80's all the way to 2000 and a bit farther .... But if quantum CPUs or grafin chips etc have a breakthrough... We are in for a huge jump ! That said a breakthrough might never come and things slow to a crawl ...we will see 😛

@tunejunky vs tech around in the real world, sure. compared to tech in the series? no 😀
