Back to Clusters

The lunchbox cluster recently underwent a change. The change was motivated by the need to improve the use of mounting hardware, replace the hub with a switch, and cooling issues in the case. We've renamed it "DQ" -- we'll let you guess what that means.

Here's the parts list:

DQ's first trip was to Sin City, Las Vegas, NV. Erik gave a talk (right) and Sung, Matt, and Steve Poole listened intently (below).

DQ got to sit on the table while Ron worked on the VGA BIOS and the rest of us did other "work."
