Yeah, they are small and that is the point but the only problems I have
is that using PIC chips brings along some extra baggage which I will not
be using. I still have not settled on a 'perfect' design yet but my two
processor piggy-back design will most likely turn into a single processor
with a latch as a paged mmu.

Some of what I envision is to have these little buggers act as mini
routers/servers for both in the home/office and as an alternative to
tying-up telco companies.
My wishes are for an SBC with PowerPC chip, Backside Cache, Ram slot, Rom
Slot, and maybe 16 bits of I/O space.... Cost 200-300, Tops.
