Clustering *may* work for the math / astrophysics applications you're speaking of, but most likely not for the games. It really depends on how the applications you use were written.
We'd also need to know more about the laptop you currently have to judge performance differences. I'd say that the BBB would play angry birds, and several other android games just fine. So long as 512MB of ram was enough. There is even a video on youtube somewhere of an LCD screen vendor who demo'd need for speed shift, angry birds, and a few other things. All of which seemed to work just fine. However, you would need to set all this up yourself. So in short, the BBB would probably play games just fine as a single system, but clustering would not help. While clustering might help the math heavy apps you have in mind. *Maybe*.
