OK, so I just came up w/ the design for the NeXT Mac Pro, a Cube (ok, the original Cube idea is owned by someone else)!
As you may know, the original NeXT Cube had space for four whole motherboards. In practice I'm only aware that either one or two got used (two w/ a NeXTdimension gfx card, the setup I have).
But I think the original idea was that it would house 4 individual computers/board, connected by the Mach kernel (Mach ports!) to form a singular compute unit. #WWDC
