I don't think anything, including linux, will ever be powerfull enough to stop black holes from colliding.
I sure as hell would not like to get involved in such a event, being light years away suits me better ;)

Invite hundreds of people round to his house to have a massive
gaming marathon? :D
It's certainly a cool looking supercomputer. I can't even afford one PS3. :(
