I asked for some help in a previous posting but it apparently did not
get throught to the newsgroups.
I would like somehow/someway/someplace to get my hands on a transputer
board to do some experimentation. I would prefer to put this board
on a machine that I already own: AMiga 2000 or Amiga 1000.
I don't think I can get my school to "buy" into it at all. I have
been reading the postings to amiga and transputer groups for a few
weeks ---since I just got started in netting it was a lot to read.
I have downloaded much info; about transputer language, refernces,
OCCAM referrences, Helios etc. I have also subscribed to the
Transputer newsletter..
What I need is some very specific info...like where and how do I get
this board and how do I become an alpha test site etc. I have been
reading Computer magazines and I know about the Atari and Amiga
transputer projects. I think there is a board for the IBM AT--from
some of the postings....
I need answers--hopefully from someone at Commodore--I don't think I
have the money right now to go and buy an IBM AT and another tranputer
board to go in it along with all the software..
Can anyone be of help.....
mark.
I would very much appreciate email...not postings...reading newsgroups
takes up too much of my time......

I'm building such a beastie (and an i/f for the A500--may well be retrofittable to the A1000 since the A500's expansion connector is just the 68000 pins): T8 20 MHz w/ 256Kwordx32bit dram, 4 cycles (200 ns) and would probably like an alpha site. I'm no company, just a garage tinkerer. But i've got a C cross-compiler for it i think. how much $$ can i charge you? i think the parts will cost me $1000. plus about 10000 hours of labor, so far. My goal is to be the Steve Jobs of the home supercomputer market. (Now we just gotta convince America how much better off they'd be if they could balance their checkbooks in 18 microseconds.
