Felch, of course this is fantastic and important. This means that we can still push further and further. Just like Asher said, there is a certain point after which we can start simulations of such complex things that it actually does give us lots of new information and possible break throughs. Just thinking about it, quadrillion calculations per second, that is insane.... And this in turn gives the older technology an incentive to come down, to come closer to consumer hands, giving us more computing power.
THe point is, we can always do more. We easily think that when the next level is reached, then we don't need more computing power because we can't think of any problems to be solved. But this is false, there are tons of complex things to be solved that requires technology to go forward, and these ridiculous supercomputers to develop even further. This is to say that there is never enough computing power. It will always benefit us even more.
