Supercomputer exceeds the capacity of the human brain!
With the capacity of a million everyday laptops Jaguar is more powerful than a human brain.

Ya but computers need to be programmed to think. So basically, a computer can only perform human thoughts that have been previously programmed at a high rate of speed. Saying a supercomputer can exceed the "capacity" of a human brain is impossible.

What? You only use half your brain? Why? Are you only half awake? You realize that is a misconception that has been proven wrong right? As is the 10 or 20 percent myths. Your entire brain, virtually all of it, is active all the time, expect when for instance sleeping, then it could go down to 10-20%.

Not Shure where you Got your Data.

10 or so years ago they belived people used 7-10%.

With the Invention of the New Scaners out there: MRI, PET among others They now Realise for the Most Part most people only use 3-5% while Awake and anywere from 5-10 While having Lucid Dreams.
