 "A Linux cluster on the desktop--Rocket Calc just announced their 8-
 processor "personal" cluster in a mid-tower-sized box. Starting at
 $4500,
 you get 8 Celeron 800MHz processors, each with 256MB RAM and a 100Mbps
 ethernet connection. The box also has an integrated 100Mbps switch. Plus
 it's sexy." Perhaps less sexy, but for a lot less money, you can also run
 a cluster of Linux (virtual) machines on your desktop on
 middle-of-the-road hardware. See this followup on Grant Gross's recent
 piece on Virtual Machines over at Newsforge.
