I know we've discussed it, but BBC's article is nice.

Big Mac... LOL... that is one Big Mac I'd actually like to buy, out of my price range though it may be!

Not your regular quarter-pounder!

Though with the heat they make, it puts a new meaning on the phrase 'fries with that?'

That's one "Big Mac" that would probably be somewhat underappreciated in Ethiopia.

Even with the advanced cooling system they had to put in, I'm sure those G5's still get hotter than most of McDonald's burgers. On average.

But not as hot as their apple pies!

1 x McD apple pie = to the heat of 1100 x Apple G5's?

That's cool! So cool!

They should start water cooling those pies before they go critical.
