Oh, you took it seriously? Sorry then.
That was only a fatal joke, we thought that
most folks would understand that... Maybe it
was a bit too sarcastic? Well, we´ll try to
avoid "sick" humor as far as possible then...
We are NOT going to tie several CPU´s together.
Though, haveing a ´882 for completion of the
uncomplete FPU in the 040, is not impossible.
The ´882 can cope with 66.5MHZ, and yes, this
will require an external interface as well...

That´s right, and what´s the options? Emulation!
You did see that FPU benchmark?
At least we will save in on that. :)
The world is full of cheap modern electronic
circuitry -Why shouldn´t we use it???
