<tr><td colspan="2"><p>Japan's National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology has ordered an IBM eServer Linux supercomputer. It is capable of 11 trillion operations per second and will be running SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 8. It is expected to end up as number three on the top 500 supercomputers list, moving the Lawrence Livermore Labs Linux cluster down to number four.
<p>
The computer will include 1,058 eServer 325 systems, each with dual AMD Opteron processors.</p></td></tr>
