I think this would be a cool project for someone who wants to fiddle with a desktop "super"-computer with multiple nodes. I've been interested in getting started or exploring with this kind of distributed computation, and I'm assuming that starting off I wouldn't be totally concerned with what it's capable of in comparison to a regular full-scale desktop but rather if I can get it to work. Beyond that, I would extend my sights to getting a couple desktops and trying it on a large system.
