Hi, Suppose I had a 150 TB / 74 CPU dual quad Intel on Rental.Connected by dual Ethernet of 1.0 Gigabits second. Would it help advance research in India ? Would new pharma drugs come out of it ? Should it be given to students say at the rental of Rs 500 a month/Rs 1000 a month (they can easily afford that from their UGC scholarships ---- what max can I charge for it). In 2 years time it wouldn't cost much. And it would generate tonnes of parallel programmers.
Currently, would it be good for high-tech research all over India/third world countries all over the world ---------------- can such a super-computer be used for destruction/ I say NOT. This would spur tremendous research in the next 10 years as Universities churn out people over a Beowulf cluster. Erach -- http://mm.glug-bom.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
