MOSIX is a software that can transform a cluster of PC's (workstations and servers) to run almost like an SMP. The main advantages are simplicity of use and near optimal resource usage, i.e., when you create (one or more) processes in your login node MOSIX will distribute (and redistribute) your processes (transparently) among the nodes, to improve the performance.

edit: also a linux cluster !

Don't forget to put the cluster behind a switch (I believe it is a switch or perhaps a router, you know, the ones that shield of traffic to other networks ), as there might be a lot of traffic on the cluster-network (migrating processes, ...)
