Each Tesla processor has hundreds of processor cores that delivernearly one teraflop of peak computing performance. The Cray CX1delivers up to four teraflops of performance at the desktop,when configured with four Tesla processors.

The Cray CX1 product is called an "affordably priced" desk-sizedsupercomputer. Unfortunately, most industries are cutting spending at a time when computers are reaching above andbeyond what most people will ever need for their computing requirements.
