Supercomputers run open source software
,----[ Quote ]
| ACCORDING TO Novell nine out of ten of the
| most powerful supercomputers in the world run
| open source software.
|
| The numbers come from the Top 500
| supercomputers list, which shows that Linux
| powers nine of the top ten, and in total
| eighty five percent of the whole 500. In case
| you are wondering what this has to do with
| Novell, Novell's SuSE Linux Enterprise Server
| runs on six of the top ten.
