[Orange-tech] need more CPUs?

[Prof. Mark Alan Matties]

Hi Ton and Toni,

Is another 200 CPUs enough? I've added nodes 101-200 to your pool. 
They're configured and ready to go! I'm getting excited for the 
premiere! I double checked my schedule and, unfortunately, I won't be 
able to make it to Amsterdam. That's the day I'm having some minor eye 
surgery (if any eye surgery is minor!).

In the last couple of weeks, please sms text me at 443-621-9316 if you 
have troubles with the Xseed. I want to be able to fix any problems ASAP 
so you're not delayed.

For the credits, what you suggested is mostly fine. How about the following:
    RENDERING SERVICES PROVIDED BY
        Bowie State University Xseed
        Dr. Calvin W. Lowe, President
        Prof. Mark Alan Matties, Director
        http://xseed.bowiestate.edu


I can't tell you how pleased all the computerati here are to make our 
small contribution to real art!

Regards,
Mark
