Bullsh#t. I'm not talking about the Dilbert office type of corporation, I agree that, most of those guys don't know their mouse from a hole in the ground. These slung together supercomputers aren't for those type of places, they're more for very complex simulations and modeling. In other words more engineering, and scientific applications, and those guys do know a thing or two about computers and networking, most of them have been running UNIX forever, and Linux is nothing new to them. They will cobble these supercomputers together out of old systems they have around, or better yet like the article said, they'll find a way to steal some processor time from the computer on Dilbert's desk(assuming it runs Linux) to design a space age whatzit, while Dilbert plays solitaire, checks the stock market and surfs for porn.
