For the Intel based mpc's they are not much more than a
single cpu system. Here are two machines:
1. VTech Platinum 486DX2/66 Dual
2 i486DX2/66 processors
Pentium ready
SCSI-2 on board
256K cache
16 Mbyte of RAM
2X CDROM
527 Mbyte hard disk
15" monitor
and others
$3,799
2. Ambra (of IBM) Dual Pentium
Last time I check it was $4,800
(I believe it has only one Pentium for this price, but...)
You can find their ads from PC Mag or ComputerShopper.
