A demo of this would be great.

But, these are the biggest selling points for OpenSG by far.  Once we 
get people to run OpenSG on a cluster and see how much code it takes 
they are hooked.  We should not give up showing users OpenSG's biggest 
selling point just because they have to run multiple programs.  Provide 
the programs for them, put up a page on the wiki that says how to run 
them, and then help people to try it out.  If we don't provide a reason 
for people to use OpenSG, then they just won't. :(
