thousands, of users simultaneously.
The Supercomputers are the most powerful computers regarding
performance and data processing. There are specialized computers used by
large corporations, and task specific computers.
They can do millions of math operations in one second. They 're also called
the "math crunchers". Supercomputer has thousands of processors,
hundreds of gigabytes of RAM, and hard drives that allow hundreds of
gigabytes of storage space, and sometimes thousands.
