Screaming server racks right in the middle of the show floor.

If that's not a good time, I don't know what is. Supercomputing 25 was a great experience, and can't-miss for me, since it was right in my back yard this year :)

A few of the highlights of the show, that I mentioned here:

- EPCC's Wee Archie Pi cluster: epcc.ed.ac.uk/whats-happening/articles/wee-archie-earns-its-wings
- Student Cluster Competition: sc25.supercomputing.org/students/student-cluster-competition
- IndySCC: sc25.supercomputing.org/students/indyscc
- Dolphin PCIe Interconnect box: dolphinics.com/products/eBox_5.html
- SCinet: sc25.supercomputing.org/scinet

Huge thanks to the various folks who talked to me throughout the conference. I got to learn a lot from the HPC community, and even met many of the folks I interact with online for the first time in person!

SC26 will be hosted in Chicago: sc26.supercomputing.org
