Came across a great deal on 3 2014 Mac Mini’s and an Apple AirPort Extreme, great specs for $250.

How would I go about putting these together into a proper cluster for computing use? How do I install something like RedHat and start queuing up jobs?

Any help is appreciated, thanks!

2014 Mac Mini’s... great specs... 250$

Those.... have a dual core i5, clocked at 1.4ghz??

Go pick up a slightly newer optiplex, with a 6 core i7. It will use less power, and will be faster, and likely cheaper.
