Don't get too excited.  Using a dual Opteron is easy enough.  But using
a cluster is another thing.  IE this won't be a 24-node NUMA machine.  It
will be a cluster of 24 dual-cpu NUMA boxes but the nodes will be connected
with something that does message-passing.  Gigabit initially but something
faster later (ie the current cluster uses the cLAN hardware but cLAN is
no longer a player in that arena).  Myrinet is not bad.  But there are
better options.
