Take a Survey and Win a Personal Cluster from Cluster Monkey

Douglas Eadline writes that you can win a Personal Cluster by filling out this survey.

For the past four years I have been bending, drilling, and swearing at pieces of sheet metal. My goal? To create a personal cluster by cramming four MicroATX motherboards into a single PC case with a single power supply. I also wanted a true desk side unit that was low cost, cool, quiet, provided some serious FLOPS, and of course looked good. Development efforts were successful and have spawned a commercial version of the Limulus personal cluster. The current version achieved 200 GFLOPS running HPL (the Top500 linpack benchmark). Keep in mind, these are general purpose CPU FLOPS from off-the-shelf hardware and not GPU FLOPS.
