Cost effective? I thought Beowulf clusters, where the most cost
effective. Or do you mean that the G5 was trounced on all the other
tests, and that's the best spin Apple could come up with? ;)
Do you have any references to back up that claim?
Please excuse the suspicion, but I've just waged war with some MacHeads,
and we all know how "religious" they get about their computers. Don't
we? I use Macs to, but a computer to "moi" is just a tool.
