I am doing a qualitative assessment of various microprocessor =
architectures used as platforms for a range of life sciences =
applications.  I am especially interesting in learning whether PowerPC, =
Opteron, Xeon or Itanium architectures offer unique advantages in =
different types of applications.  This is a general assessment to sort =
out some graduate studies I am considering this fall.  It will NOT =
include profiles of specific sites.  Since it is not being sold I am =
happy to share results with participants. =20

Please contact me at jay.owen@comcast.net with "microprocessor =
questionaire" in the subject line.  I will forward it to you under =
separate cover. =20

Thanks,

Jay
