Refresh my memory how those worked? Two processors in lock-step?
Three processors in a voting quorum?
I don't know which machines are which, but the ones Doug Humphrey
showed me (when he worked at Tandem) used three R3000 processors in a
voting system. It was very impressive.

There's also many boards for a (can't remember
the name, it starts
with "T" and is the ultra-high-reliability system that runs 2 or 4
processors in parallel. Think it's PA-RISC, but can't recall for
sure). I don't have them, but can pick them up tomorrow if anyones
interested.
Tandem? If so, those will almost definitely be MIPS processors.
