Crash test penguin? Chrysler meets Linux (News.com)
News.com reports on
the DaimlerChrysler purchase of 108 dual-processor Linux workstations from
IBM to run car-crash simulations. "DaimlerChrysler has been using
computers to simulate crashes since the early 1990s, first with single
supercomputers, then with clusters of systems running Unix. Now the company
is switching to less-expensive systems with Intel processors running Red
Hat's version of the Linux operating system, DaimlerChrysler said."
