World's fastest computer runs on Linux!

[Brian Densmore]

SGI has built a cluster of 10,000+ Intel chips. Clocked
at ~43 Teraflops. They later submitted a mark of over 51 Teraflops.
That's way better than NEC's Earth Simulator at 35. It's beaten IBM's 
latest number too, at 36. So where's Microsoft's entry?
All we hear is silence there.
So for a mere $50 Million you can own one too.

"Three OS's from corporate-kings in their towers of glass,
Seven from valley-lords where orchards used to grow,
Nine from dotcoms doomed to die,
One from the dark lord Gates on his dark throne
In the Land of Redmond where the Shadows lie.
One OS to rule them all, one OS to find them,
One OS to bring them all and in the darkness bind them,
In the Land of Redmond where the Shadows lie."    john thrum
