Tandem Propellers
![LoopyByteloose](https://forums.parallax.com/uploads/userpics/025/nC57NMH1BTW54.gif)
Well all this talk of a Propeller Supercomputer really is challenging to me.
It would seem that I could best get started by booting two in Tandem.
I have 5 chips coming, so I could do this right away.
And it would be an excellent first chapter of a text on this application if Parallax wants to carry this into schools.
By the time I figure that out, someone will have built the 8X8 desktop supercomputer and I might be prepared to do something with it.
I am really actracted to the idea of an educational supercomputer that will cost about the same as a PC.· Seems very affordable for schools everywhere.
I would be grateful for any proposed schematics.
Possibly with a development·a pathway from 2 to 4 to 8.

After all, great products need great names!

Truly Understand the Fundamentals and the Path will be so much easier...
I guess I should have suggested four.
I still think that keeping it smaller would demonstrate more clearly.
Eventually two boards of four could become a 2 x 2 x 2
Still it seems that about all they are good for is number crunching and if you really don't comprehend the math, you certainly will have difficulty with finding any need.
