Invitation to the wake for the QCDOC
On Tuesday 31st March we get kicked off the Edinburgh QCDOC.To celebrate this event, there will be drinks and snacks in office 527 (Craig's office) at 16:30 on Tuesday 31st March.
A short obituary of the QCDOC
The QCDOC was born two and a half years late, to parents who had already divorced. The QCDOC was a sickly child. It would only work for brief periods of time (20 minutes). However it was guarded by jealous and proud parents. After a great deal of pain for its carers, the QCDOC started to be slightly useful, just as the money to keep it in electricity ran out. So on Tuesday 31st March we celebrate the death of the QCDOC, although technically the QCDOC is still alive, as some people are unwilling to switch off the life support machine. We are still waiting to see whether the QCDOC will be survived by any dependents (new computers).
