Built where?  Worldwide, in the USA, in the EU?

What, to you, qualifies as a supercomputing facility?  After all,
Apple is still using 1 Gflop theoretical throughput as a definition of
supercomputer in their advertising.  Is your criterion based on
performance, or is any large cluster fair game?

Given that a large cluster can take years to install, are you
interested in the commission date, completion date, certification
date?

While it doesn't have the information you want, but www.top500.org has
a lot of information on the top supercomputers in the world.  It might
have answers the the questions behind the question.
