So on one I would suggest frigate. Those support (I think) and pci-e coral ai chip.
Home assistant would be great bare metal

distcc cluster?

I don't understand why people want to use so many PC's rather than just run multiple VM's on a single server that has more cores.
Having multiple machines can protect against hardware failures.
If hardware fails, you have dono machines.
It's good learning, both for provisioning and for the physical (cleaning, customising, wiring, networking with multiple nics), and for multi-node clusters.

I'm not sure if running multiple single SSD machines would provide much redundancy over a server with multiple PSU's and drives. Sure the CPU or mobo could fail but the downtime would be less hassle than 25 old PC's.
Of course there is a learning experience in more hardware but 25 PC's does seem slightly overkill. I can imagine 3-5 max.
I'm probably looking at this from a homelab point of view who just wants to run stuff though, not really as the hobby being "setting up the PC's themselves".
