I only suggested DS-Links as the T9000 used them and it was one of the only technology from the T9000 that was really "stuck" with us. I guess you guys are using a StrongARM to accomplish this "transputer". I haven't visited your site in a while. Couple this with KROC (with multi-processing) and you got yourself a transputer.
