If don't want to spend a lot of money to find out what good transputers
are to you, you may wish to consider starting with one of the Transputer
Educational Kits.  Such a kit offers a transputer (T800 usually optional)
with a collection of software (Occam plus C) and some sort of hands-on
transputer course.  I know of two companies that make them:  CSA in
the U.S.A. and Bieware in The Netherlands.  Please email me for address
details.
