I still laugh at the idea

PC is not a real computer, a cluser is a whole other animal. Compare them to the classification of living beings. You have your one celled bacteria and protozoa, then you have your multicelluar organisms. A multicellular organism is usually a group of of one celled organisms that began to work together with a common purpose. Eventually we will see clusters speciallized to different tasks, yet working together to complete a larger goal. Oh wait, that's a network. Well kindof.

So, a PC still doesn't make a real server, but serveral PCs bound together through applications can.
