Info Week | Customers Eye Virginia Tech's Supercomputer Upgrade
by IconoclasT at 6:10 pm EST, Jan 27, 2004

I feel myself becoming a mac zealot.. Yeah, I switched!

Virginia Tech's decision to replace its "Big Mac" supercomputer processors with Apple Computer Xserve G5 servers will make the installation more attractive to the federal agencies and organizations negotiating with the university for its novel supercomputer technology.
...
The installation has been up and running for a few months, but the swapping of G5s for Xserve servers will shrink the size of the installation. "We'll cut the space used by a factor of three," said a university spokeswoman. "We'll go from 3,000 square feet to 1,000 square feet."
