Stop picking on me you bully, go chase some of the

I hardly think I'm a bully, but I can't imagine why you think you can spam
freely without someone calling you on it. So, you are an irregular spammer
and somehow that's OK. No.
What you were trying to ask or do was unclear. If you weren't spamming, then
you certainly had the opportunity to come back with an explanation of why
you posted here. Naturally, you remain true to your nasty self and instead
of answering with clarification resorted to insults.
However, since you've now actually asked a question (even though it has only
marginally to do with Windows XP), I'll answer you:
Would second hand SuperComputers be useful for
home users, what OS can you load on them besides
Windows CCS2003, can they run XP Pro x64 or Vista
x64. They usually have powerful Unix or Linux Server
software on them.
No. "Super Computers" - Sparcs, Crays(!), Alphas, Proliants, Silicon
Graphics boxen etc. have different hardware and different processor
architectures than are supported by Microsoft Windows. They run the
operating systems which were designed to run on them. A simple Google for
"super computers" would have given you the information you claim to seek.
Since you are obviously too lazy to type those two words into a Google
search, here is a link which will explain the basics to you:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supercomputer
Could such machines be used to run a 24/7 video
streaming server, streaming in Real, QT or Flash
(subject to Adobe rights) say instead of WMV, for a
home user,
No.
and confirm that Windows OS software on
those machines is useless.
Any operating system not designed for the machine would be "useless", not
just Windows XP.
And if you want to understand about the special requirements of clustering -
which frankly you don't have the technical chops to do based on your posts
- then here's a start in learning about it. Interestingly enough, Microsoft
does have a Compute Cluster Server 2003 available but I very much doubt
using it is in your league.

The only reason I don't killfile you is because you are nasty and dangerous
and you need to be watched. If you want to think that's bullying, fine by
me. I really don't care what you think. Don't bother to troll back to this
unless you have a legitimate question because I don't answer trolls.

Oh dear what a lot of effort to finally get an answer from
two arrogrant MVP pricks !
"My reputation" and "nasty self " really is that how I come
across, well I never, I just can't stand professional fools,
that refuse to provide accurate answers to the public.
Ofcourse the public are always going to ask stupid
questions, just get over it, there is no need for your
abusive consending know all attitude.
That right MVP's just abuse the public, you know we
can't do anythink about your abusive condescending
attitude, I assume MVP's are not employees of MS. You
two are a disgrace to other MVP's that really try to help
the public.
I have no interest in computers, I just have to use the
dam machines, and the Windows ones are really crap,
and trying to get any assistance from you arrogant
MVP's is hopeless.
I now know why at auctions some computer gear is so
cheap, it is highly specialised, and not suitable for home
use, but of course thats not what the auction people
always tell the public.
I looked up what "troll' means, but I am still not too sure
what it means in your abusive context, I assume it some
type of futher insult, you two are really too abusive for
words.
"Troll"
'(Scandanavian folklore) a supernatural creature (either
a dwarf or a giant) that is supposed to live in caves or in
the mountains"
"A partsong in which voices follow each other; one voice
starts and others join in one after another until all are
singing different parts of the song at the same time"
'he used a spinner as his troll"
"Angling by drawing a baited line through the water"
also "spam" its got something to do with bulk emails.
'Unwanted e-mail (usually of a commercial nature sent
out in bulk)'
