We're running Fidap, from Fluent.com, for CFD research.  Once we scale the
x450 to 4 processors, they outperform the Opterons...for obvious reasons. 
One of the downfalls of this particular CFD package is it is NOT
network/cluster aware...thus the need for that software demo tomorrow.

Dow, if you want to attend, they'll be presenting tomorrow at 1:00 in the
IBB seminar room.  Feel free to call, or check out web site for
directions.  At the very least, you could make some contacts w/IBM and
this other company (vagueness due to sudden memory loss).

Thanks
