Agent0013,

Again I don't think Lightning will do what you are implying.  It is a hardwired network of machines, not a virtual collective over cyberspace.  At least that is my impression of what that particular bit of software does.  That is why you are not finding many folks with any real experience.  Not many people have multiple computers daisy chained in their play rooms and homes. 

You are invisioning some setup like SETI's.
