Hey Tux people Ive just read this article posted on slashdot but the following paragraph caught my eye-
"Future supercomputers must be cost-effective, efficient and easy to enhance and scale. Scalable supercomputing systems that run proprietary operating systems clearly are a thing of the past," said Bill Feiereisen, leader of Los Alamos' Computer and Computational Sciences Division. "Instead of buying a complete proprietary computing system, we are looking toward a future in which a robust set of integrated, open source software tools enables us to assemble a truly scalable supercomputer from components that best meet our needs. We are excited by the new partnership with Linux NetworX to help advance these goals." Now when you have people like Los Alamos National Laboratory saying Linux rules it makes the whining from Richmond seem pretty pathetic ooh and the URL http://www.lanl.gov/worldview/news/releases/archive/02-106.shtml Regards Richard (were is my DVD copy of mdk 9.0) Neal -- ******************************************************************** * Hey if you're going to get mad at me every time I do something * * stupid, then I guess I'll just have to stop doing stupid things! * ******************************************************************** -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
