Cubic you are genius and I'll bet you did not even know it.
You said the magic words. Intel is always looking for the Next Big Thing that will suck up scads of CPU cycles and be so compelling that everyone will want to chuck there old sluggish P-2 Xeon 450 and buy the latest fastest computer. Alpha World is IT baby! Yeow! CoF needs cash, resources, programmers, funding, more cash, and even some financial muscle wouldn't hurt. Intel has more cash than they know how to spend. Damn, the Microsoft anti-trust trial has uncovered some interesting tidbits of info about the way Intel spends money on technology demonstration projects: if I remember correctly they threw several hundred programmers at one project (Microsoft objected and forced them to quit). Roland, ya just gotta tell the boss. Call these dudes at Intel. I'd bet they'd buy CoF and move at least some of you out to Silicon Valley. Hey, the weather is nice and you'll get used to the earthquakes, I promise. Really. ScottyDM -- Scott D. Miller General Manager & Principal Consultant Arête, Ltd.
