I quote from the article "Its replacement, the Cielo, has been used by the weapons research lab since 2010. While Roadrunner cost $121m (£79m) to develop, Cielo cost $54m (£35m) and is a faster operator, according to the lab."

I will sleep better tonite knowing the new Computor cost less!! :thumbsup:
