    This is an article, by Robert McMillan, about open source software and bioinformatics, appearing in the June 2002 print version of Linux Magazine:

    ``Established open source projects have proved particularly useful to biologists in two areas: in number crunching, where Linux-based Beowulf clusters are providing a high-performance and inexpensive alternative to proprietary RISC systems, and in scripting, where biologically-focused scripting libraries like BioPerl and BioPython have become extremely popular tools for writing quick queries to the numerous publicly available genomic databases.''
