Touchscreen Technology

Mungo Darkmatter talks about touchscreen technology.

Although I really love touchscreen technology on portable devices, I think it has its place.  Just as I wouldn't expect a person to use a mouse on a smartphone, I also wouldn't expect them to reach across a desk to use a 24 inch touchscreen instead of a mouse.

What can you do with 33 Raspberry Pi's?

How do you make a low powered, cheap, deck of cards sized, computer a super computer? Run 33 of them in a cluster.

The Raspberry Pi is a cheap, compact, computer for experimenting and learning. You can get one for under $50. Josh Kiepert built a custom case and put 33 of them together and used the Linux OS and Beowulf clustering software to run them in a cluster so that they can be used as one very powerful computer to run a distributed software simulation.

He earns extra Mungo Maniac points for adding the colored LEDs to make the case look cooler.  The makers of ENIAC, the first electronic computer, put ping pong balls over the display light bulbs to jazz up its look for a newsreel, so there is a long tradition of incorporating bling into computers.

Kiepert also overclocked each of the 33 Raspberry Pi's, which has to make liquid cooled overclocking modders step back and take a look.
