Use more of them. 50 8068s at 1 MHz are cheaper than 1 Pentium at 50 MHz.

Again Sebastian demonstrates little experience. He is making
conclusions without sufficient knowledge. 50 8086s would significantly
increase weight both in CPUs and their supporting platforms, and in
increased power for all those CPUs. Cheaper is not about the price of
that CPU. Costs are a 'system wide' analysis. Sebastian apparently
has not yet worked at the 'system design' level and has never worked in
aerospace. Rad-hardened is part of getting hardware 'fully qualified'.
Just getting the part qualified is major costs.
