    @pedro-abreu back in the 90's we thought that Transputer would be future of computing ... parallel computing with 64K processors connected. Then Nvidia took over.

    @nik123 well no not exactly. Transputer had no graphics capabilities - it was just meant to be a parallel processing cpu, easy to connect to peers
