Hmmm... that might be interesting.

Probably not - though I wonder if Mosix could be?
IIRC the Mosix patches are for i386 only,
though I could be completely wrong here.

You're obviously just as cluster-obsessed as I am!

I guess that if we are going to do a demo, at
Linux Beer Hike maybe, or at another Linux show,
then we need to do something different than piling
up boxes.
The laptop idea is good - how about linking laptops
via wireless cards? I suppose the latency in wireless is
higher, so could kill any really heavy parallel stuff.
Or how about trying to construct a portable system that
we can wheel about, or put in a rucsac for LBW?
