On 2001-07-09, Andrew C. Hornback scribbled: # Fitting all of that power into a 1U rackmount case? Talk about truly sick, # twisted and sadistic. *evil grin* Remember that API Networks (the guys behind Alpha before Compaq sold the IP to Intel) had a 1U rackmount server with dual 21264 (EV67 or EV68, forgot which) at 833Mhz with 4MB of DDR L2 cache for each processor. It also has on-board dual Intel 10/100 Ethernet and a single-channel Symbios Ultra160 SCSI controller. # Let's see... a Beowulf-class system of those, and running Seti. Talk about # nuts. *goes in search of a Federal Grant to cover said sick, twisted and # sadistic project...* I think Microway or some other company created a Beowulf (and maybe a OpenVMS cluster) of several of those 1U Alpha servers... drool. Of course, dual Alpha processors would probably kick dual Athlons at Seti@home anyways... mwahaha. -- Linh Pham [lplist@closedsrc.org] // 404b - Brain not found To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
