Important Beowulf Information

Raistlinn wrote in to tell us that Dcg has joined the growing number of companies selling Beowulf based distributed computers. Just another place where Linux is gaining acceptance. But that's not the important part, Jerkweed wrote in to comment that Beowulf, as well as Becker's eth drivers have been pulled from Nasa servers. The (extremely unconfirmable) rumour is that cheap super computers might be "Munitions" so buy those Extreme Linux CDs asap (or at least upload code outside of the US before it is illegal *grin*) Update The Beowulf site is still alive. I'm assuming the munitions thing is just rumor unless someone can prove otherwise.
