6th list of the world's most powerful computing sites as of 10-JAN-1993
=======================================================================

This list is a compilation of the world's most powerful computing sites as
submitted to me by Usenet readers and compiled from various other sources. It
is ordered more or less by computing power. This list will be posted out weekly
to people on my mailing list and monthly to comp.sys.super If you have any
corrections, changes, additions or deletions to make to this list, please mail
them to me 'gunter@uwa.oz.au' providing information in the format shown below.
