This is what Jef Raskin imagined for the Apple Macintosh, before the 68000 processor was adopted instead. It was supposed to be a low cost computer for the masses. <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.folklore.org&#x2F;StoryView.py?project=Macintosh&amp;story=Price_Fight.txt" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.folklore.org&#x2F;StoryView.py?project=Macintosh&amp;stor...</a>

I did not know this was something that I wanted to do. Are there any more examples of building a multiprocessor system?<p>Edit: there does seem to be lots of single processor z80 computers online, which is nice.
