Hi, just looking in the 16F62x datasheet page 102
"time out sequence" and quote;

"if MCLR is kept low long enough the time outs will
expire. Then bringing MCLR high will begin execution
immediately (see figure 14-11). This is useful for
testing purposes or to synchronise more than one
16F62x device operating in parallel"

This seems to be common for most of the PICs, so
assuming they can all be clocked simultaneously
from an ext oscillator, and synchronised as described,
it would be possible to build a parallel processor
using some common bus pins etc. But would it be
useful for anything?
