Graphical representation of the top 500 supercomputers

Pretty cool! Check out the "By OS" button - most of the graph is Linux. Way to go! :)

Interestingly, the vast majority of the top 500 supercomputers are owned by countries with permanent membership in UN's security council with the exceptions of Germany and Japan, the leaders of the Axis in WWII.

IBM and Bull (Bull works almost wholly with IBM) own 100% of the super computers marked as "classified," which are in the USA, UK, and Russia.

I found this very interesting, especially that they have powerful supercomputers now in China.
