Fitting A Linux Box On A PCI Card 137
An Anonymous Coward writes: "Running on Newsforge/Linux.com is a hardware review where Slashdot's Krow took a couple of OmniCluster's Slotservers and and built a cluster configuation inside of a singe host computer (and even had DB2 running on one of the card's inside of the host). Could something like this be the future of computing where for additional processing power you just kept adding additional computers inside of a host?"
Isn't that the course we've been on? (Score:4, Funny)
A computer used to take up a room.
Then, computers were large cabinets in a computer room.
Now, they are boxes in a computer cabinet in a computer room.
So we can extrapolate the next step for computers is to be cardss in computer box in a computer cabinet in a computer room.
It's a natural (obvious) progression really.
