>From Mandrake's LinuxWorld Expo page (pardon the obvious ESL nature of the 
text):

    Hammer demos 

     * Demo of the Beta version of the upcoming Mandrake Linux 9.0 on Hammer.

     * Use of X 32 bits server running KDE 3.02 64 bits and a Konqueror 64
       bits navigator. This server will be linked to a Gigabit Ethernet
       network. There should also be a charge simulation of 5000 connexions.

    Mandrake Clustering (Clic project) demos: 

     * Use of a cluster of 4 Bi-Athlon XP/MP nodes with GeForce 4.

     * Presentation of operations of nodes fast deployment from a server.

     * Presentation of the Quake demo on multi screens.

     * Presentation of Povray calculations using MPI or PVM technics which
       show that every node calculates and transmits the information.

Nice to see operational software reaching to 8 CPUs on 4 nodes...

Cheers; Leon
