Since we had "Crack" Racks so long ago with the RC5 project and so on I thought I would put the idea out there for a TeAm Beowulf as a actually working project and as a great PR tool for SETI@HOME, both for Anandtech as well as the SETI@HOME project itself. We need some things to do this. The concept I had was a pure homogeneous Beowulf like what U of Kentucky created only built on Abit BP6's with Celerons running at 550MHz.
The dream... (26GHz Beowulf)
24 - BP6
48 - 366@550
24x128MB PC100
96 - 10/100 NIC's
24 - 200w PS
24 - Floppies
24 - PCI VGA cards
A total of 97 10/100 ports of combined switches.
Enough KVM's to run it
Keyboards & mice

1. We need a Name for it. Check this thread.... >>>LINK<<<
2. There is a PayPal Account under TeAm_AT_Beowulf@scarieville.com, if you dont have hardware or shelving help with purchases.
3. The email account for it to run under is also TeAm_AT_Beowulf@scarieville.com.
4. We need technicians to help build configure and maintain a Linux Beowulf cluster of this size.
5. [/b]LANMAN has offered to host it provided he gets some support on shelving materials.
