You know the statement is false *within the USA*. Outside perception of
course is different with
the dollar value falling, the government announcing a new record
deficit, house-market bubble at the
west-coast, it might look like a recession to anyone outside. On the
inside though, everybody
is still cheerfully buying on credit.
But yes, off-topic, and I think the 96 cpu cluster in a box is a great
idea too.
