Distributed computing

This might be a dumb question, but i gotta do it :D

In a distributed computing, can the machines have different OS??? If yes, its something that is worth to do? i mean, can i have problems for building a distributed computing with diferent OS?

A nice example of a distributed system that gives zilch about the OS on a node
is MPI (Message Passing Interface).
