Brian Daniels writes " NASA's created a Beowulf to investigate the data seized from computer criminals. The article is short on technical detail, but Linux and the cost advantage of Beowulf vs supercomputers is mentioned. One wonders about exaggerations though - does the average computer criminal really have "hundreds of gigabytes of data", and where was he keeping it? "
