Hi everyone,

Here is an interview with Joe Armstrong in DDJ in which he talks about
Erlang/OTP:

It's quite short, but useful for showing to people who have not heard
of the language/platform.

Quote: "Today multi-cores are really like "distributed system on a
chip" with very high-speed message passing. Since we have
share-nothing and concurrency, Erlang programs map beautifully onto
multi-cores. Ericsson is shipping products on dual-cores that run
virtually twice as fast as the uni-cores with only tiny changes to the
code."
