Penguin puts Linux supercomputer in sky
,----[ Quote ]
| Today, the San Francisco-based outfit announced the debut of what it calls
| Penguin on Demand - POD, for short - a service that offers remote access to
| high-performance computing (HPC) Linux clusters. The idea is to provide
| researchers, engineers, and simulation scientists with the sort of
| number-crunching power they can't get from something along the lines of
| Amazon's Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2).
