Its very interesting, and if anyone on this side of the pond is
interested in trying one, or porting code to it we would like to help.

I'm not sure about that. Beowulf is all about clustering COTS
components. For example, Opterons themselves are manufactured for the
volume server market, not specifically for HPC.
As with any accelerator addon you have to balance out the time spent 
recompiling ot altering your code to run on it, vs. the speedup you will
get.
