SiCortex

Something strange is happening at SiCortex.  A friend says the bank has taken control and laid off the staff.  I hope they aren't forced into bankruptcy -- it would be very bad for HPC.  Their machine is unique in its low-power approach to supercomputing... kind of like an IBM Blue-Gene but with lots of memory per core, and a 500Gbit/second network on top of that.

Keep your ears open, probably an announcement today or tomorrow.

And I was on the last step of installing CPSeis on their Houston machine.  It was SO EASY!  Fribbits.
