Ah, I see this is from 8086 Consultancy, who are known for their
compellingly weird products. Like this, for instance: Cluster HAT —

What it does is add 4 Raspberry Pi Zeroes (W/WH, etc) as a cluster on
top of another Raspberry Pi. The cluster networking is done via USB
gadget mode. Useful? Uh ... maybe. It's certainly smaller than any Vax
cluster ever was.
