The J/PSI cluster (#141 on the new TOP500 list) is indeed running  
Scientific Linux 4.4.  Perhaps the reason it shows as Linux is that  
when one uses 'uname -a' it does not show much detail.  I am pretty  
sure Don submitted our results to the TOP500 and he may be able to  
explain how this data field is populated.
