Virgina Tech System X

I thought it was so cool when Virgina Tech bought all those 1st gen g5 macs. They then upgraded the computing farm in 2004 to the xserv and xserv RAID. This year they started doing Simulation Of Cell Division. As far as I know, this kind of work has never been done before. Given the amount of computing power it takes, if it was done, someone knows about it.
