Hi all,
I am throwing this open to all to comment. As a part of DC, I have been facinated with putting together anything I can get my hands on to run SETI and now BOINC. It started with SETI Classic after I saw a picture of a 'Redneck Supercomputer'. It was a tower of about 10-12 P1 machines running Linux off floppy connected to a server machine. I put together machines ranging from P1-133 through Perntium-Pro (NT4 and VERY stable) to PII and my current setup it a box of 6 P4-3GHz machines dedicated to BOINC (called The Borg), plus a Linux box and a 'working' machines.
This P1 supercomputer was not the only one at the time, but I have not seen pictures or the like mentioned for a while now.
What oher setups are there? I have read another member call his setup the Crack Rack (nice name).
