<sarcasm> Gents, this list is solely for serious supercomputing discussions, not speculations about the potential for a cluster to be used for heating up meals. I mean, if we're willing to do something so trivial with such beautiful complexity, what's next? What's even less useful than cooking meals? Washing dishes? Folding laundry? Oh, wait, I've got it! The very pinnacle of pointlessness, the epitome of entertainment, the tiptop of triviality: Let's teach the dang thing to play board games! Now there's a serious waste of time and money! </sarcasm> Best, ellis _______________________________________________ Beowulf mailing list, Beowulf@beowulf.org sponsored by Penguin Computing To change your subscription (digest mode or unsubscribe) visit http://www.beowulf.org/mailman/listinfo/beowulf
