That's awesome and is one of the reasons I love computers. An American Nimitz class aircraft carrier is a marvel of engineering. Those are the big ones that only the US has. Each one is made of about a billion parts, and is run by 6,000 people. The latest Intel CPUs, the main brain chip in your home computer, has a hundred billion just transistors in it, there are many other parts as well. That is, it's way more complex than a Nimitz class aircraft carrier. And it's serviced by one guy.  |
