    An update by Ina Fried on the progress by Microsoft to create a version of Windows for HPC clusters:

    ``Speaking at a supercomputing conference in Seattle, Gates announced that the company has reached the Beta 2 stage for its Windows Compute Cluster Server 2003. The product consists of both a cluster-optimized version of Windows Server 2003 as well as software for job scheduling and other tasks. It is scheduled for release in final form in the first half of next year ....

    ``In March, a Microsoft engineer said the company hoped to have a product out by fall, though that turned out to be a beta. The new beta version will be public, unlike the one released at September's Professional Developer Conference in Los Angeles, which was limited to about 1,600 testers.''
