 Just out of curiosity, were there any machines out
there that were built
from multiple MC68000's CPU's? 
There was the MassComp from Massachusets Computer, IIRC.   However, 
it wasn't exactly a multi-CPU system.  It used one 68000 for 
processing and another one to handle the very fancy (at the time) 
color graphics system.    It ran some flavor of Unix.

I learned (taught myself) C on that machine.

We had several of them at NASA JSC around 1984 - 1985.
