I'm sure I read a similar article recently, which debunked that theory.

not that shocking then... then again I'm a resource whore right now... I'm currently running software on 10 processors and using up about 24GB of RAM. Nice. Can't wait to get my software installed on the other 40 processors...   :devil:

its raided... so should be fine.... plus all of our raw data is stored on external disks and tape. :-) The only problem is if it did crash it takes a few days todo a fschk... and then would take a week or so if we needed to put the data back on there!
