Researchers found a 13 million digit prime number. The number means they will be awarded $100,000. I'd love to have that much time on my hands to be able to find that. How do you read a number with 13 million digits in it?

Its simply mind boggling. Start writing now and it would probably take you the better part of a year to get to the 13 millionth digit if you were writing or typing.

They found it using a network of 75 computers. I say if they were really good, they would figure that sucker out by hand.
