That is something I am more then happy to setup and host for this
community. A blog would be perfect to write articles or link to articles
and have a summary on the page and others can post comments to discuss the
topic or otherwise.

Jim,
Without wanting this to become an energy forum.
Price is way higher than industry gets it for here - seems it's
variable prices - most producing industry uses a constant amount
of energy with their machines however, so doesn't need to pay the
high variable price quoted there.

Hi Ellis,
if we are to believe the video on the page John pointed to then the
membrane indeed processes both DNA strands. You will probably want to
have a second read anyway in order to improve reliability. We can only

Forgive me for posting yet another article.
I think it is relevant, as after all Beowulf is all about putting COTS
components to work doing HPC.

I'm not sure price or accessibility is what holds back DNA today.
