I think it's safe to add (giga/peta/tera)flops per second to the list of LCD display, LED diode/light, CD/DVD disc, SSD drive, ATM machine, PIN number, PDF format, GPS system, LAN network, RAID array, RAM memory, HTML language, GUI interface, SCSI interface, NIC card, SAT test, UPC code / ISBN number etc

@syn I don't always use the last letter in a word as part of my abbreviation, but when I do it's FLOPS

@anthropy hey ops being short for operations isn't too far out

@syn honestly I don't have strong opinions on this I just find it funny how many of these types of abbreviations we have :P
