We are sorry, but the system has encountered an error, and all flights from JFK to DFW have just been destroyed. Send error report to Microsoft? Y/N

Microsoft has launched an effort to produce a version of Windows for high-performance computing, a move seen as a direct attack on a Linux stronghold.

Half the point behind those clusters is that they can use very low end machines. Have you seen the specs of what Longhorn is projecting as it's system requirements?

It's bad enough having one desktop crash in the middle of my work anyway. I dread the day I get the the call...

Help Desk: The data center's down.
Me: What server in the data center?
Help Desk: The data center's down.
Me: Doh! Guess I'll have to reboot the data center...

Sad to say that Kyril Faenov is my age... funny what a little ambition can do (oh yeah, and a brain).

Maybe he'll let me clean his bathrooms?

Well, a lot of the M$ guys are poo-pooing the 6GHZ CPU, 2G RAM/TB HD thing... But, it may take a monster to run it well. I don't like waiting around on XP with much less than a half gig of RAM now ...

That's kinda funny. I actually created a page for people to kill their processes here at work. Now I'll have to expand it so they can kill entire clusters 😃
