Downloading the simulator is mandatory, since we're saving over $10 per minute in today's money compared with renting the original hardware. Also, the signs say “THANKS” instead of “THINK!” which is a nice touch :)
- AnimalMuppet 3y agoWow. 16,000 characters of memory (max), 11.5 microseconds cycle time, so 0.087 MHz = 87 kHz frequency. Wikipedia says $25k/month rental in today's dollars, which I calculate as being $34/hour. I could buy that much computer today with the loose change under my car seats.
- tempodox 3y agoIndeed. The supercomputer in my pocket does high-resolution domain coloring and fractal generation in seconds or even just a fraction thereof, while the 1401 could probably have heated a house for a winter with the same compute load.
