[Posted July 10, 2003 by ris]
Wired
covers
the use of a Linux cluster to figure out the relationships of thousands of

"The computer project has
certainly grown over the years, but the real innovations that made this
possible are the concept of cluster computing and the Linux operating
system," [biologist Ward] Wheeler added. "Linux makes it so easy to create
a supercomputer."" (Thanks to "Fuzzy Gorilla")
