A friend of mine forwarded this large scale LAN party picture to me. Look at the number of computers… the hall must be damn warm since some participants were seen half naked! Haha…

If you have no idea what’s a LAN party… let’s check what Wikipedia has to say:

A LAN party is a temporary, sometimes spontaneous, gathering of people together with their computers, which they network together primarily for the purpose of playing multi-player games. These local area networks (LANs) come in various sizes, from very small (two people) to very large (more than a few thousands people).

Small parties can form spontaneously, but large ones usually require a fair amount of planning and preparation on the part of the organizer.

Can’t imagine how powerful is this hugh LAN… several times more powerful than the world’s most powerful supercomputer I guess!

Have you attended any LAN party in Malaysia? Well, maybe not, Malaysia is only good for biggest flag, or biggest roti canai, but never large scale LAN parties like this… maybe a party of 5 computers in a cyber cafe only, unless we have something like this…

Wow… with this installed, I would expect a hugh turn out!
