My 14 year-old says shes ready for the big league.  She found my
OCCAM/nMOS Transputer manuals from 12 years ago and says she has to have
it.  She's smart enough -- straight A's and asking teachers to teach her
topics they don't know themselves -- taken up reading college-level
books on her own.

If anyone out there can advise a simple and low-cost shopping solution
for a four-CPU card with all needed parts (or fully assembled board) for
a PC (Nu-Bus preferred or PCI if need be), and an appropriate OCCAM OS
programming kit (Mac OS preferred, etc.), I'd appreciate it. So would
she.

Tx, HMS
