There is no maximal number, only your financial funds will limit the size of your  
machine :-).
The theoretical MIPS/MFLOPS performance increases linear with the number of your  
Transputers, but the actual MIPS/MFLOPS value will be less than that, strongly  
depending on your application.
Therefore, with 1 Transputer you will get the best price/power-ratio, but this is  
probably not what you want :-)

64 or 128 T800 make quite a nice machine. If you want to test your application  
first, before you spend DM 100000s, I could offer you a guest login on our  
Transputer guest account tguest. There you could experiment with up to 5 T800 for  
free. Send me e-mail if you are interested.

Viele Gruesse nach Deutschland,
