lunix super cluster

I love this book. After reading it, I became a proficient assembly programmer and I am now able to write interweb applications and stack dequeing algorithms.\\the fact of the matter is, no matter which code you assemble, it is the same for all cpu cores, and the hood remains the same, because the little man inside the computer is poly-lingual. ergo, vis a vis, sempre fi, snafu, concordintly,i recomend that you guys write your own assembler after this, or better yet, a compiler. i hear gcc is the way to gothese jewish programming wizards sure are smart. huzzahlove,A.G.

Excellent

This was an excellent book. It told me everything I needed to know on the subject.The author presented the subject in a clear, detailed, and easy to approach manor. Explainations are indepth and very engaging. The author stays with you every step of the way. It's like having a little man inside your book helping you along. You can't help but feel like you've mastered this subject once you've finished reading this book.I whole heartidly recommend this book to anyone who is SERIOUS about learning the interworkings of computer architecture.
