Check out www.beowulf.org for commodity supercomputer information. You can also check out the beowulf cluster quick-start or the Beouwlf HOWTO, both linked off of http://www.xtreme-machines.com under links. These sites are for tips on how to build one. I think some history may be present in the HOWTO, but I wouldn't hold my breath. -Jeff -- Articles to bigrigg+parallel@cs.cmu.edu (Admin: bigrigg@cs.cmu.edu) Archive: http://www.hensa.ac.uk/parallel/internet/usenet/comp.parallel
