Nope -- the Perkin-Elmer was one 68000 with a 68010 possible as
an unsupported upgrade. (The MicroXelos recognized it -- I don't know
if UniPlus did).

The Masscomp box (Mascomp 500) was the dual CPU box. Masscomp was
swallowed by Concurrent with was the Perkin-Elmer computer division
spun off from Perkin-Elmer in about '85 or so.
