I think that "there" works too. Like Mark 13:30, make sure predictions
are multi-interpretable.

At that time I posed:
" it make no sense to operate cpu's in parallel, unless the CPU's are
as powerful as they can get."

[..]
The transputers were definitely better than a pc XT at the time, and a
T800 could compete with a 386+387. Given a few thousand of them, and
the right problem, they will be interesting.
As a top-of-the-line CPU burns 250 Watts, 2048 of them need 50kW or 159
Euros/hour.
