Rob, Re: The URL you quote from isn't even a creative piece of marketing. Certainly isn't supercomputer status. I said "several hundred million". While both you and Paul is writing in English, I kind of have the feeling that you are not communicating in the same channel :-) gary

Rob, <Certainly isn't supercomputer status. I said "several hundred million"> So that's your definition of a "supercomputer"? Seems like you're on the opposite extreme from Apple's marketing department who is calling their G4 processor "Supercomputer on a chip." By the way, what would you say if the Itanium server cluster in Ohio demonstrated better performance than an Alpha-based supercomputer costing "several hundred million" dollars? That would mean only the Federal government would want to waste $$$ on the latter, wouldn't it? Tenchusatsu
