Ok...what about this? Is it possible to restrict the cluster to servers only? That way you don't transmit the Xserver stuff over the network to and from the clients thus possibly messing with bandwidth. Can we simply build a server cluster that balnces among itself...leaving the client

Stephen, Basically the idea is to combine the processing power of all the idle CPU cycles on the client terminals (since all they are doing is running Xwindows or a shell if you set them to boot at runlevel 3) with the server. Kind of similar to having a really big multi-processor SMP box ;-)
