Lots Of MIPS But No I/O
  • adj. Used to describe a person who is technically brilliant but can't seem to communicate with human beings effectively. Technically it describes a machine that has lots of processing power but is bottlenecked on input-output (in 1991, the IBM Rios, a. k. a. RS/6000, is a notorious recent example).
