So that's three.
Four if you count the keyboard :-)

They did?! I don't suppose you know of any
pics online somewhere?

BTW: I wasn't serious about it counting as a 3 processor machine!
I've never seen one in the flesh, although I do remember
thinking I'd like to have one when I first heard of it.

I used to work in a shop in Aberdeen that had one. Never really looked
at it that closely, because I was too busy playing with FRACTINT on the
brand spanking new Amstrad 2386, with its 386DX-33 processor, 4M of
memory, 80M IDE hard disk and 640x480x256 colour graphics. Terribly
impressive.
