Feb. 26--ARLINGTON, Texas--It's fast, powerful and a big boost for the University of Texas at Arlington.

The new supercomputing system, tucked in the Information Technology Machine Room at the University of Texas at Arlington, looks like a bunch of big black and silver boxes. But this $828,000 system, wrapped with a silver ribbon and unveiled Monday, is expected to put the college on the high technology map and leave UT-Arlington's outdated computer system in the dust.

The system is one of the most powerful supercomputers in Texas, said Dennis Marynick, a chemistry professor and chairman of UT-Arlington's High Performance Computing Committee.

"We've got power here and people will gravitate to it," he said. "In the past we had a computer that was not as fast as some PCs. Now that no longer applies because people will want to come here to use this."
