Cluster update

[crash3m at comcast.net]

those P100's are identical, if we use a clustering technology that does
not require identical machines I have more 386/486's (ranging from 4Mb
to 32Mb in memory, hard drives range from 40Mb up to probably 500Mb)  I
can deliver them to the location, but I work 6 days a week and have
little spare time unfortunatly.  I'm going to request a lighter work
load but the requests usually take a couple of weeks to process.
