hey, i was just wondering what you guys though of the possiblity of clustering several comps into a single box?
i want to use this comp not only for a server but as a personal comp as well i already have a few 386 available. i was just looking to this as a cheap alternitive to buying a server (wich i most certainly dont have the money for). i want to run an ftp and a webserve off of these boxes; the reason i want to cluster is alone no one of them have to power to handle this kind of work ( i dont think).

q: do you think this is a practical answer to my problem ?
q: would any of you say that this would be even worth doing? or would i be better off just getting some server space somewhere (i am trying to avoid this because of money issues).
q: should i put these seperate comps into a single box? i do have limited space but do you think the cooling of this box would just take up more space than the boxes do now ?
q: would i have to build a special case or is there a company that offers oversize cases for this purpose?

If you guys have any other suguestions of things i could do they would be most welcome
