UNAM loses its Kan Balam “supercomputer”

I was just informed today that one of the few supercomputers that UNAM got last year partially burned. It never worked well, and when it reached the 50% utilization it burnt. Won’t mention here any of the strange things that seemed to happen in the deal between HP and the University ‘cause you can read them here (in spanish).

The question that remains is, was it really a supercomputer ever?
