I'm just wondering how much use clustering might be today: A single (?multi-core) CPU can perform as well as Gordons cluster! OK you need a cluster to run Vista but most other 'tasks' are partitionable to run on multiple different spec machines - more cloud than cluster but that works out a lot cheaper to maintain! Having said that I'd still like a machine where I could plug in extra processors to beef up a couple of things but for me its getting like virtualisation - don't need it no more.
