Q&A with IBM's John McCalpin

[Rob Stow]

A link at Ars Technica took me to this great article:

http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/library/pa-expert1.html

"This question and answer article features IBM Senior Technical
Staff Member John McCalpin on his work on the POWER5 and in high
performance computing; on the Hypervisor and the size of POWER5
chips; on 128-bit computing -- and even on why he became a
computer scientist instead of an entomologist."

| "... on why he became a
| computer scientist instead of an entomologist."

He wanted to get away from all those damn bugs.
