Times: Is the YoYotech Fi7epower the World's Fastest PC?

"Where might you expect to find the world’s fastest PC? In the air-conditioned server room of a Silicon Valley tech company, perhaps, or cobbled together by boffins at a university? The reality is different: in the showroom of an electronics store off the Tottenham Court Road in central London sits a glowing black monolithic machine, the YoYotech Fi7epower MLK1610. This desktop supercomputer, built by a small British company, is nearly twice as fast as the next most powerful PC in the world. "

This is one of the new Intel Core i7 supercomputers, showing just how fast the i7 quad core chips are (even without water cooling). The feature I find most intriguing on this computer is the use of an 80GB solid state drive as the boot device. It claims a boot time of mere seconds, using an optimized version of Windows Vista 64. I do question the terrible name, though. Try searching the web for that Fi7epower!
