I have a very dim memory of an article in perhaps
Personal Computer World c. 1983. Might
have been written by Dick Pountain. Anyway,
this was the first time I'd heard about the transputer
and it was all about building telecoms systems.
Nothing about supercomputers.

It would be interesting if someone still had a
copy of this article and could get permission
to post it here.
