... and you remember the video "the extremest computer test forever" or so
when George Stachnik et al. tumbled an HP3000 from a roof down to the
parking area and finally the server survived and booted ?

Looks alike what hp does with MPE - and we victims currently do hope that
the OS will survive like this piece of H/W after the fall ...

Just a remark - the other video I do not know ...

Have a good day, Andreas, CSC, Germany
