Yeah, but.... OpenMosix migrates the process, right? And an ia32 process isn't going to run on a zArch processor or vice versa. I'm pretty sure OpenMosix requires homogeneous processors in its resource blob. Anyone else remember Amoeba? OK, anyone else *other* than Dr. Boyes. Let's not always see the same hands here. Of course, by the time you go that route, you may as well just do a Grid and be done with it. Adam
