Myself (and I know 1 or 2 others here) worked with transputers "back then", so it'll be interesting to see if you come up with some 6502/transputer "frankenputer"
Also my multi-tasking OS I run on my '816 boards is loosely based on the transputer threading model too. It all happens at the "microcode" level (which is the byetcode VM that BCPL compiles into).
That makes sense. I mean, as far as I've learned, most transputer systems used host processors - fancy SPARC and MIPS hosts for the educational institutions and big businesses, and x86 PC hosts for the common folk
So, I guess this would fit in the latter category.
And, of course, I'm familiar with your RUBY OS. I've seen it integrated with a few projects up on YouTube, as well.
I can cobble the hardware together, but doing software - I find that to be far more difficult.
