If you get a 10X, you may call it a wash and could go either way. If you

You can take a (running) disk and move it through a variety of orientations

not sure if this is what you are looking for, but www.realvnc.com allows you to remote control
across different platforms. On most distros of Linux, a VNC server is
already included (x11vnc is the server included with xwindows, krdc is a client
included with kde). Most (all?) of these

Title: RS: [Beowulf] Cluster newbie, power recommendations
I have done this for several years. If you remove the video card, CD/DVD units and other power consumers, leaving just a single hard disk and network, a modern PSU in this range is well capable of handling at least two motherboards.

Sure, or PVM.
But there's more to running a cluster than just running the
parallel code. With virtualization it would be possible to
practice setting up a cluster as well, without actually
need
