Ya know, I first postulated this idea in the presence of Mike and Dave about
a year ago... two or four procs per board times six boards in a chassis,
running as a beowulf cluster in a deskside chassis.
You just need the boards, procs, and six dual attach FDDI s-bus boards for
the cluster interconnect...
