Ok, this one's from the 70s, and it's a large, external unit rather than
a single board, but I have a Floating Point Systems AP-120B, essentially
an array processor for fast floating point operations. There's a bit of

Impressive! I guess documentation would be quite a challenge.
It seems like the sort of thing you'd want to do ray tracing on in the
TRON (1983) era. I wonder if there were CGI users of it.

I'd love to get it running one of these days, just need +5V at 100A and
a set of interface boards for a PDP-11...
