[Acm] 3 more switches and start of logo

[Matt]

Hi all -

The Pentium II which I was trying to load OpenSuse on seemed to be having serious
issues, so I just decided to recycle it and use it for parts.  The good thing is
that I got 2 momentary switches and plugs out of it that are both functional.  Also
built another using the Radio Shack switches.  I believe that we have 9 now.

Also, I was thinking of calling the heterogeneous supercomputer The Phoenix, after
the mythical bird of prey that arises from fire and ashes.  The reasoning behind
this is that the heterogeneous supercomputer will be made largely of old used PCs
and PCs that were headed for recycling.  Hence, the supercomputer is arising out
of things that are thought to be less than functional, ie: ashes.  As such, something greater is arising out of the sum of its parts.  I have started to create a logo for it, which we can perhaps use to produce shirts using something like CafePress.com or Zazzle.com to raise money and promote it.  The logo is about halfway done; it is attached in JPEG format for the Community's review.  Please 
note that I am not a graphic artist, so it is a bit rough.  Still more to go.

Cheers -
Matt
