  Many thanks, but what about mpi ? At work, I use a SGI Origin 2000 with 8
processors, linked together with mpi.
And by the way, how to use any parallel version on a dual Pentium II PC (under
WinNT, of course). Because my motherboard is dual Pentium II capable, although
I still only have one installed...

Thanks in advance

GP
