DQ

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:

Front-end: Ron's IBM Thinkpad T23 or Erik's IBM Thinkpad X20 or Sung' Sony VAIO Z505JS.

6 smartCoreP5 nodes from Digital Logic running LinuxBIOS configured with BProc support (one less than the lunchbox due to the spacers required to make better use of the mounting hardware)

1 (one) NetGear 100 Mb switch (with its own power brick)

2 IBM Thinkpad 12 V power bricks

1 (one) CD storage case

1 pink fuzzy strap
