Can't see the big deal. Not hard to get hold of Opteron CPUs anyway. Only a matter of time for them to do it. I suppose it could increase there nuclear programme progress by a month..

It's a meteorological computer. Which, in devious Persian-speak, is an obvious cover name for a Weather Control Device.
