“...Calvin computer science professor Joel Adams...”
Work from one of those darned private Christian colleges!
(The department head when I was in grad school was a Calvin grad;
and son of Christian missionaries to China).
What Makes Calvin Unique?
U.S. News - America’s Best Colleges 2007
Numerous college guides give high praise to Calvin.
Calvin is the distinctively Christian, academically excellent
liberal arts college that shapes minds for intentional participation
in the renewal of all things.
Pretty cool. I recently finished installing the first Dell Cluster of the Intel Quad Core boards for the Navy. 126 Nodes, 1008 Cores, and the theoretical peak was about 10 TFlops.
I only bring it up because the chips seem to be the same.
I've seen an article in the past on Linux Journal about a guy who built a cluster in a tool box that he would connect to his laptop. I'll have to go look for that article again...
That would be really cool to see..
With a game server like that there would be no lag.
So this is that free software you’re always talking about that countries like Iran and North Korea can all download for free?
Dude that is so cool it makes me want to go drop 2500 for parts but with the next osx coming out and the fact I want to max out my PB’s memory so I can do more playing around with qemu (If you know of a better x86 emulator Id love to know) My computer budget is set for a bit.
Someone mailed me asking me to reply to this so Ill pop off greasmonkey for a few seconds.
This is a story about a kids at a Christian college putting together an affordable super computer which will help his dept, his school, and others to make distributed supercomputing more possible. You cant come on and compliment the *hardware* design can you?
You cant come on in and contribute anything of worth can you?
Nope you just come in at troll level nine... This is why you have earned the nickname Ort.
Ok folks GE is now in the 'Its powerful software' mode, he has switched from 'Its a inferior foreign clone'.
You apparently are fine with that, doesnt even cross your mind
When Windows does something neat does it cross your mind that Microsoft has allowed the Chinese extesive access to the source code? When Apple does something cool does it cross your mind first that the core of their OS called Darwin (Named after an evolutionist /snicker) is free for them to download and use? Funny I dont see you trolling on the mac threads?
The clustering software is American, despite your fantasies.
Microsoft has allowed the Chinese extesive access to the source code
Only as a commercial response to guys like you who support the Chinese taking Red Hat for free, legally renaming it, then reselling it as "Red Flag".
Named after an evolutionist/snicker
I see your best buddy is starting to mold you into a puppet for all his causes.
The OS being clustered is not..
Only as a commercial response to guys like you who support the Chinese taking Red Hat for free, legally renaming it, then reselling it as "Red Flag".
You mean the Red Hat that got its start by taking a Finnish made Kernel?
I see your best buddy is starting to mold you into a puppet for all his causes.
I see something flying over your head... The snicker was aimed at you because were a project under the GPL named Dawrin (or for example a dirsto) you would surly claim it as evidance of the products evil nature.
