Start the week with a unicorn! No, not the Torch Unicorn though I'd quite like one of those too. No, there'll be two camps for this one. You'll either instantly know what it is or, more likely, you'll never have heard of it because it never sold. This is the HH Tiger, aka the Tangerine Microtan 2.

I been looking over the chipset and, Im confused... like...if there is memory over there, and there, then, whats all that memory for?

It’s split into the 3 CPUs. The alt text explains all.

The Tiger also had a bus interface, rather like the BBC's Tube, to support additional external processors, each with their own RAM of course. I built a 8086 board running CP/M-86 for the Tiger (which worked well) and a 68000 board running OS9 (which worked less-well!)
