Remote Direct Memory Access Over IP

    I'm absolutely amazed how stupid the average Slashdotter is. First, they don't know that this sort of technology is decades old. I was using remote memory on an image generator back in the early 1980's, and it was nothing new then. Then, they cry about security implications when THERE ARE NONE.

    Slashdot is on life support. Somebody needs to pull the plug.
