Is it possible to utilize multiple CPUs over a network?

[Alien18]

Hi All,

Just had a random thought, not really a serious question. But is there any way/software, that would allow say two or three PCs that are networked, to all use the CPU's on the same task, such as video editing or something?

Cheers,
Alien

yes, but this isn't the right section

Sorry, thought it'd be ok in General since it wasn't a "proper" question as such.

Thanks for all you other replies. It's interesting to know these things, I'll have a read up on it later.
