cute. though if I had to put together a demo cluster where performance was not the goal, I might consider using cheap wifi routers. just ignore the wifi: think of them as very cheap, low-power MIPS "servers" with built-in support for interesting network topologies (FNN, etc). after all, if you're trying to build character, you might as well also deal with having as little as 32M ram and processors slow enough to notice ;) probably also one of the few clusters that could run from a quite modest battery. _______________________________________________ Beowulf mailing list, Beowulf@beowulf.org sponsored by Penguin Computing To change your subscription (digest mode or unsubscribe) visit http://www.beowulf.org/mailman/listinfo/beowulf
