[blu] Big BLU Super Computer

I find the idea of a "Cluster Fest" (CF) enticing.  Bring a machine, build up the OS, work it into the cluster.  Perhaps the meeting before the CF could be about clustering.

You could still build a "Jalopy Cluster", AKA Big BLU.  As a side effect, build a mini-how-to-faq which could be distributed in advance of the CF.

It seems that building such a beast is more about the process and less about what to do with it afterwards.

Just ideas, take what you want.
