The use case is tinkering. I think it’s pretty sweet to be able to build a super low cost cluster like this. Play with docker, k8s etc.


if you only want to play with software, VMs are a lot easier though (and you got to learn the basics of the VMs)


Generally, the point of a cluster like this is to also gain insight into things that involve physical components as well.

It's a different type of desired end result / learning than a purely software approach. :)
