We have a 'cluster' of 24 VaxStation 2000's running Ultrix in one of our
computer labs.  As far as Johnathan's definition of a cluster, I think
we meet the requirements.  We have the 24 workstations hooked to two file
servers (Micro-Vaxen) via NFS and a PrintServer 40.  Each station has
access to the same resources/files as any other.
