  • You need to put something common of a known size in the pictures, to give a better understanding of size,volume and scale. Unique, innovative, and just plain cool. Keep up the good work.

  • I see something of common known size in the photo: RJ45 connectors, Monitor connector, motherboards (w/ports) and power supplies. I think I even see a power strip on the top of the box. All in all, I think the dimensions of this computer are about 2 feet wide, 2 feet deep and 2.5 - 3 feet tall.
  • Even better - from the Micorwulf site: Its dimensions are just 11" x 12" x 17"
  • VERY INTERESTING! Has anyone actully run an application on this computer other than LINPAK? RSVP if so.
  • Would there be any way to run other applications on this thing and still be able to use the power of all the networked boards or would you only be able to use apps designed to work on something like this?
  • Atarax (hydroxyzine) for Anxiety: I take this along with Lexapro... I was having such hard times falling asleep due to nine million things going on through the day ... then the anxiety kicked in...sometimes I would be up for hours while everyone is sound to sleep...When I started taking this I fall asleep within thirty mins and usually sleep sound. It is not addicting... and good price for the good things the meds do
