I also saw some stuff about people developing distributed processing models in order to use networks of relatively cheap pentium PC's to emulate supercomputers. Slick idea if it works.

Works, and works well. Most of the "computers" in the Top 100 are commodity based clusters, as opposed to big iron like Crays,etc. Check out Mozix and a few other projects for an idea on how it all works...
Also, have you thought about embedded development, RTOS stuff, etc?
