Have you not heard of multicore processors? Did you not know there are
other chips besides the CPU, like the disk controller, the memory

Math co-processors comes to mind... but that might be a subject for some
other thread.


I have an old data book for intel CPUs (that goes through the 80386),
which lists a couple we don't hear about much, maybe because they don't
fit in with the IBM-PC:

8089: I/O coprocessor
80376: 80386 without real mode
