Fast Gas Scooters - A Great Way to Save Money and Help the Environment!

A good fast gas scooter is a great way to cut your fuel costs and to help the environment at the same time. There are two main types: ride-on scooters and stand-on scooters.

Ride-on fast gas scooters are compact and so they only need a small amount of gas compared to a car and they are real easy to park! I have a RoadRunner iScooter 2009 model (RR50SBM) Gas Saver Scooter and it's a really cool, fast way to get around in the city. Compared with electric scooters you'll see that they're faster and have a much better distance range.

The RR50SBM is a fast gas scooter because of its 50cc one-cylinder, four-stroke engine with automatic choke, which give it a top speed of about 35 mph. This is faster than electric scooters which only have a maximum speed of about 20 mph. And I get quick acceleration which is important on the road because sometimes you need to be able to move fast to avoid idiots. It's also got front disk brakes with an ABS, which you never know when you're going to need.

One of the best things about owning fast gas scooters is at the end of the week when you look in your wallet and see that you haven't spent all your cash on gasoline for a car. I get a fantastic 102 miles per gallon and that makes me feel real happy. I've got a trunk at the back so I can carry things with me and a good, strong anti-theft disk lock which, let's face it, we need on everything these days.

My RoadRunner fast gas scooter came with a 12V/7Ah low maintenance battery and charger included in the price, which was also low. It cost me only 799 dollars which was a real good price, considering the list price is 1,299 dollars! If you buy online like I did, you can get good prices on discount gas powered motorized scooters because it's easy to compare all the different offers.

If you want a fast gas scooter just for driving around your neighborhood I reckon a stand-on scooter would do the job. The cheapest I've seen are from the X-tremens XG range and their prices start from 374.00 dollars which is a pretty good price for something that's going to save you money on the gas you waste using your car for short journeys!

The fast gas scooter XG-550 is a two-wheeler with an EPA certified 2-stroke 50 cc gas engine which comes with an easy electric start and a back-up pull-up starter. Its top speed is 35 mph and it can keep this up for distances over 20 miles, so it's a pretty useful gadget to have around. This model from the XG range of fast gas scooters has 10" aluminum mag wheels and a dual front shock suspension system to give you a smooth ride.

It has front and rear disc brakes and is easy to fold and the variable twist grip throttle is a handy safety feature, because if you fall off it stops. There are plenty of stores on the internet so you can take a look at all the different types of gas motorized scooters. My neighbors keep a fast gas scooter on their RV and use it a lot when they go on trips, kids use them to get around campuses and now seniors are starting to use them too.

When people started to talk about the way that cars were polluting the air and that we would have to stop driving so much, I couldn't see any way that would happen. But now that these fast gas scooters are getting so popular, I reckon that things are changing and we are starting to see that you don't need a whole car when you only want to go on a short trip. Who knew that one of the solutions to global warming would be to get us all riding around on fast gas scooters!

Roadrunner Tops Fastest Computer's Race

Only the name has changed. IBM retained the title of world's fastest computer makers. Instead of the perennial winner Blue Gene/L, this time it is Roadrunner, housed at the U.S. Department of Energy's Los Alamos National Laboratory. This supercomputer from IBM attains the speed of petaflops, first ever attained by any computer.

 

The ranking was announced this Wednesday during the International Supercomputing Conference in Dresden, Germany, a biannual event that ranks the 500 most powerful computers around the world. According to the TOP500 ranking, it achieved a peak performance of 1.026 petaFLOPS (floating point operations per second) to take the top spot. One petaflop is equal to a quadrillion, or one thousand trillion, calculations per second. The No. 2 BlueGene/L, also made by IBM Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, attained the speed of 478.2 teraflops.

 

IBM's Roadrunner is powered by 12,240 IBM PowerXCell 8i Cell chips similar to those found in the gaming console. The basic computing functions are handled by 6,562 AMD Opteron dual-core processors, leaving the Cell chips available to deal with the heavy lifting necessary for the math-intensive calculations in which the processors specialize. It takes the space of 278 refrigerator-size server racks.

 

IBM, continuing its dominance in supercomputing, makes 210 of the 500 supercomputers. 5 out of the top 10 supercomputers comes from IBM. Just behind them is HP (Hewlett-Packard ), making 183 of the fastest computers.

 

The Top 10 Fastest Supercomputers

 

 

Take a look

 

• The fastest supercomputer in the world is also one of the most energy efficient.
• The No. 1, 2, 3, and 5 are located in U.S. Department of Energy labs.
• U.S. continues to be the hub of supercomputers in the world having more than half of the systems (257) located in the U.S.
• U.S. is followed by U.K. with 53, Germany with 46, France with 34, Japan with 22, and China with 12. More than half of the systems used Quad-core processors.
• Majority of the systems (208 of the 500) contain between 2,049 and 4,096 processors. It is more than double the systems that used that amount just six months ago.
• Intel dominates the high-end processor market with 75 percent of all systems on the list and 90 percent of the quad-core based systems that were ranked.
