A COSTLY COMPUTER
Fujitsu Limited, a Japanese com-
puter company, announced that it has
received an order from Kyoto Univer-
sity to construct a new supercomputer,
the International Data Group report-
ed.
If the computer performs as
expected, it will be one of the 20 most
powerful in the world. The machine
is projected to be seven times more
powerful than the university's current
computing system and will use only
600 kilowatts of power at maximum
capacity. This would make the new
computer 15 percent more efficient
than its predecessor.
Neither Fujitsu nor the university
has yet released the total estimated
cost of the project.

Community College returned to class
after an impromptu vacation that

reported. The Canadian Union of Pub-
lic Employees launched a strike that

public employees like college janitors
and correctional officers. The college's
eleven campuses were forced to close
quickly due to dirty facilities.
Both parties reached a resolution
early on Wednesday, just hours before
the house convened. The new four-
year contract will increase public
employees' wages by 12.6 to 21.8 per-
cent.
