What I found amusing in Bell's article was the claims that KSR had proven
that its architecture was scalable to 1088 nodes.  At a talk I heard they
had never tried constructing a machine with more than 128 nodes, and have
little experinece with machines larger than 64 nodes.  Thats a long way
from 1088.  It reminds me of the claims TMC has made about the CM5's 
scalability to 16K nodes.
