No, but had you read the article you'd discover that the clusters it talks about are beowulf clusters.
The subtitle:..."connect ordinary PCs so they can work together"...
Later on: "Since them, the name [beowulf] has been widely adopted to refer to any low-cost cluster of widely available PCs".
If I'm not mistaken, parts of winzip were licensed from PkWare. As well, in all but the most recent version of WinZip, a copy of Pkzip was required to compress files that spanned several disks. As well, PkWare is almost definetly still receiving royalties from various companies, to add the the small fortune it made in the early '90's. If something drove Mr. Katz to alcholism, it wasn't a financial problem.
