Challenge me, or correct me, but don't ask me to die quietly.

Even here I wouldn't want your power bill. My son is amazed at your creativity in your builds! As am I great job. Ryan is wondering why none are in Pizza boxes.
i think a couple were in motherboard boxes, but i think the hardware itself wasn't well displayed so i didn't save it.

Here's my "cluster" I've been playing with.
I've called it SARS - Small Array of Raspberry piS.
It's two Raspberry Pi's and a Cubox as the Storage Node. Set it up to learn about MPI, clusters and parrallel computing. I could have maybe used a multi core machine but that didn't seem as fun. Besides, the low cost of the Pi's meant I could buy one a month to add to the cluster without a noticeable effect on my budget. Largest expense was the Cubox - this is because I aslo intend to add my 3TB external to this as a NAS device (when a replacement 1TB external arrives for my Mac that I can use as my Steam library). Whole rig thing is about 10W of power (3.5W + 3.5W + 3W) for the devices, slightly more as I have the USB hub + router for the devices. Bonus - whole thing is silent.
When I'm not using an MPI task, the Pi's run RC5-72 (Dnet) and the Cubox is idle (I want that to last a while and be stable - it's going to be my NAS and has Bittorrent Sync running. Which doesn't take up to many CPU cycles but I want it clear). Might investigate the ability to convert video over MPI.
EDIT: With the cables attached, the Cubox is back heavy, hence it's location. Need to find the blue tack to stick it to the desk!
