    Aside from setting up a small network, is there a way to use multiple PC's as one? I have 2 Desktops and a laptop (all Pentium 4/WinXP SP2), and I may be wrong, but I believe there must be a way to "link" them together so that the CPU and RAM of all three are available at the same time. Am I nuts? I know the answer to that, let me rephrase...Can it be done, and is it worth it?

    Thanks in advance.

    It can be done, but no, it's not worth it, you'd have to get stuff they use in clusters and that's not cheap :p

    Thanks for the response. I'm saving to build a new box, and thought there might be an easy temporary solution with what I've got. Sounds like I'm wrong.
