Nope! You've got it backwards, RocketWare is the Acceleration only, single CPU driver that shuts down the host Mac's CPU except using it as an I/O controller for the Rocket.
RocketShare (see my avatar) is for running the Rocket and Host system and as many Rockets as you have the slots and power needed to run the assembly.

Stage II Rockets will only run under RocketShare, having no ability to act as simple accelerators.

That's what I just said, so I guess I misunderstood what you were asking.

I didn't know that it shut down the main processor. Hmm. I'll throw Macmetex a message and see if he's ever seen the Saturn V software. Supposedly the Saturn V software doesn't disable the CPUs, and lets you use all your Rockets + Host machine.
