My point was simply that this is at Beckman Institute,
in Urbana, Illinois, at the supercomputing laboratory,
where some of the most interesting and important work
in the field of computing is taking place, and where
Marc Andreesen and friends developed Mosaic before
leaving to found Netscape. My comment was a response
to someone who asked whether anyone was interested
in a Linux job in Champaign/Urbana, and I wanted
people to be assured that anyone interested in that
avenue would not be moving into an environment that
would be a technical or cultural dead end. In fact,
the potential is for it to become a very good thing.
