I've got some applications I would'nt mind trying out on a
transputer system. However, by their nature they are massively
parellel. Does anybody know of any boards for the PC or like that
could handle perhaps 100's of tasks, each task in its selt is
probably very simple so the processing power of each individual unit
can be low; ie something like a Z80 (retrograde development !) rather
than a T-whatever which would be overkill and too expensive !
Thanks for your help,
