PRESS RELEASE ...
SGI's Dr. Eng Lim Goh to Keynote CIO Luncheon
Lafayette, LA Feb 28, 2005
TechSouth, the Gulf South's leading Information Technology Summit
and Expo, is happy to announce that SGI's Dr. Eng Lim Goh will keynote this
year's CIO Luncheon on Wednesday, April 20 from 11:30 AM - 1:00 PM at the
Cajundome Convention Center. The CIO Luncheon is brought to you by the
Lafayette Economic Development Authority and Global Data Systems.
Dr. John Miguel, President of the High Performance Computing &
Communications Council stated that, "Dr. Goh is a noted industry visionary and
the CTO of a company that has delivered a series of outstanding innovations to
the high performance computing community. He brings extensive background and
vast understanding of supercomputing technology and architectures, coupled with
a compelling vision of the high performance computing industry's direction."
Dr. Goh has been with SGI for 14 years, becoming one of the chief
scientists in 1998 and chief technology officer in 2001. His tenure included
work in computer graphics algorithms and high performance computing (HPC)
architectures.
"Bringing this type of executive leadership from SGI to TechSouth
is exciting. SGI has always been a leader in high performance computing and
with all that is happening across the state in this industry (LONI, National
LambDaRail, and ATIC) it will be nice to hear first-hand from not only an
industry leader, but an industry pioneer," says Douglas Menefee, a Lafayette
based technology consultant.
A strong proponent of designing next generation computer systems
specifically for applications performance, Dr. Goh advocates computational
density and a balanced multi-paradigm approach, across a globally addressable
memory, to architectural design that maps to the profile of customer
applications.

Subject: [brlug-general] PC100 128MB?
Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
It doesn't apply to all PC133. There was some SODIMM memory that was sold
as PC133-only or some variation of the name. It would not work in my Dell
notebook, which required PC100 SODIMMs. Looking on the manufacturer's
website, it required a particular motherboard signal to validate.
I don't know if the DIMMs had the same issue as the SODIMMs. Hopefully
someone got wise and never made that stupid blunder on the DIMMs.
BTW, I think these PC133-ONLY SODIMMS got off the market fairly quickly
because of the number of returns.
