OMG. I'm too young to have experienced that live (only started with ZX Spectrum+ and C64 with nice assembler programs usually well below 4kB) and can only say that I've seen 8 inch floppies during a one-week experience in a company during my school days. You see, I'm coming more from the PC side than Big Irons. Before getting too off topic here, I would like to thank all people who replied to my question (more answers to come). If someone invented a thing which could distill the knowledge from people (without harming them and of course leaving them with theirs) and produce a true answering machine, I guess that would be *the* reference for HPC stuff (and sometimes lengthy discussions drifting through the ether) :) Thanks again Cheers Carsten _______________________________________________ Beowulf mailing list, [email protected] To change your subscription (digest mode or unsubscribe) visit http://www.beowulf.org/mailman/listinfo/beowulf
