You don't need another jet bridge to board through two doors. At my local airport, the passengers seated at the back of the plane walk out of the jet bridge and across the tarmac to board through the back door.

It mentions supercomputers, but also gaming. Supercomputers aren't known for being particularly good for gaming, to put it that way. Is this product just a new gaming GPU, or is it aimed at a different market, even altcoin miners?
