Re: Building an HPC Cluster...

Well, considering that my main computer is the only computer that can handle anything, I have three others, two are 12 year old dell's and the third is a dell optiplex 270 with so little memory (256mb) that it cant handle installing Sun's operating system Solaris 10 (it does run XP but poorly). If I get more memory for it and a couple more of them then I might consider building a cluster. I would like a linux box to mess around with and study. Know of anyplace I can get a linux box or no-OS box for $50-$100?
How are you building that router and is it working out? I tried to use windows because that was the one I am most familier with and the only linux they had was a really old version of ubuntu and puppy linux as well as one that supposedly acts like windows.
Windows Will always be my main operating system for better or for worse until WINE can run games, :-)
