Hello
There are several Multi CPU machine:
1. PC motherboards with i860 RISC co-processor
for SCSI or Network.
2. Old Olivetti PC with both X86 and Motorola
88K CPU.
3. Multi CPU system from ZIATECH (now Intel).
4. Archistrat PANDA machine with compass bus.
5. The secret Motorola PowerPC 615 (just rumor?)
6. IBM PS/2 950 prototype board for OS/2 PowerPC
(not on the market).
8 years ago, TAOS (the pre-cursor of AmigaDE)
run on top of Quad PowerPC 601 CPU card inside
a DELL Pentium / 80 MHz PC.
