Do all (supported) PReP boards have one CPU only?Not sure, but I don't have any. I believe that there were dual processors MTX boards, and dual 604 MVME boards were offered (but probably not very popular).There were several IBM RS/6000 models that were PReP and were at least dual systems. The 240 I recall was a dual 604. There were some Fxx and Exx models I think might have gone all the way up to 4 ways but my memory is getting fuzzy.
I have a 240 at home and it's definitely a dual PReP box. I think that the H70 is PReP, too - that would be a 4 CPU box.
One thing for sure ... not alot of this hardware exists anymore.
[del] Oh, the 43p 140 shows up ebay quite often - for reasonable prices in Germany. Even the multi CPU boxes are available from time to time. HTH, Uli -- Dipl. Inf.
