Glancing at the datasheet, yes, there are registers to handle 4 tasks,
but you can apparently stack up to 8 6829s in one system for 32 tasks.
With 20 bits of memory addressing, it seems a reasonable balance (32
tasks in 1MB), but finding room on a board to stuff eight 40-pin DIPs
between the CPU and memory seems the harder job.
Just stack them ;-)
most signals are connected parallel ...
