The computers have been developed since many years and are getting Compaq in size, where Laptop almost took the place of the computers but still for doing heavy workloads supercomputers are used which are quite big in size but not from now as Parallella has been invented and is available to everyone. The parallella is going to change the way the computer is going, and Adaptaveva gives you the chance to join this revolution. Simply put, this is a supercomputer for everyone. In fact, an energy-efficient computer complex software is designed to be processed together and effectively. Real-time object tracking, holographic head-up displays, speech recognition will be stronger and smart even with parallella. The project has been successfully funded, with the estimated delivery date of February 2013. For a mini supercomputer, the price seems to actually appear that it is $ 99 magically! It is not recommended for non-programmers and non-Linux users, but the kit is loaded with development software to create your personal projects.

I have never imagined that the future of computing can be kick-start with only $ 99, which is made possible by using crowdfunding platforms.
