i want one

i was just surfing around and ran across this statement:

"...the RIKEN BNL Research Center supercomputer...The computer has 10 teraflops of peak computing power, which makes it capable of performing 10 trillion arithmetic calculations per second, with sustained speeds of five teraflops."

wow! finally something that won't make me wait! but then: "The $5-million computer took three years to build..." well, at this moment i don't have an extra 5 mil.
