Welcome Mac Rumors Folks!

I see that my column got picked up on the Mac Rumors site. Cool.

But please: If you’re going to go into a tizzy because the XServes from the article are now, in fact, available to you and me (the Little People), please don’t. At the time the VT supercomputer was built, they weren’t. People seem to be upset about that.

And “Little People,” by the way, is a reference to all of us — at least those of us who don’t work for a major university and who are building a supercomputer. It’s not a Mac-user put down. (It is, in fact, an old reference to Leona Helmsley, who famously said “Taxes are for the Little People.”)
