Warner,
That sounds a bit more paperwork than it might be worth. Ill have to
maybe look into finding an older machine with PCI on it but i definitly
want to run it on one of my machines. Also would it b possible to sett up
an emutlation of parallel processing running FreeBSD, i mean partitioning
out the job load so that one machine runs s part of a, lets say graphics
program, job while another machine runs another job. Sorry about that bad
explanetion but its been a while. I just remember seeing it done on some
unix machines.
Thank you,
Kjell
