Not currently, but theoretically, I suppose if somebody supported a Radius rocket, it could happen. Basically, a Radius Rocket was a 68030 (or 040?) + RAM on a NuBus card. Theoretically, I suppose somebody could have a primitive kind of SMP on a Mac with one of these machines. However, it's not clear to me what kind of access a NuBus card has to the address space of the host system, so the question may be moot if you're talking about simultaneous access to drivers. Of course, this is all theoretical since nobody has managed to do this yet. -- ---------------------------------------------- Michael Zucca - mrz5149@acm.org ---------------------------------------------- "I'm too old to use Emacs." -- Rod MacDonald ---------------------------------------------- ** Sent via the linuxppc-dev mail list.
