I have been doing some work with NEC's uPD7281 and was 
curious to know if anyone else in net land has used these?  They are
a powerfull set of chips that have a pipelined dataflow architecture
and assembply language. You can connect up to 14 chips together to do 
parallel computations.  We are building an Image Processing coprocessor 
for a 680XX workstation with them. I am looking for others to discuss
design and algorithm issues with.

HAL hears the 9000 series is not selling. "Please explain Dave. Why 
aren't HAL's selling?"  Bowman hesitates. "You aren't Amiga compatible."
