Getting anything transputer-related is difficult these days. There is
someone who is selling a VME chasis full of T8 transputers! It contains
about 12 B014 boards with 8 transputers each. A really nice system to
do serious parallel processing. Unfortunately, I am in the US and he is in
the UK. It is quite heavy to transport. So if you or anybody is interested
(and willing to pay for it as well as having it shipped), let me know and
I'll re-direct you to him. For general transputer-based stuff, visit my
webpage at

Cheers,
Ram
