too expensive I guess... the TMS34010 is basically a computer in its own right has a 128Mb address space and separate framebuffer and drams... and apparently some of its instructions map directly to quickdraw (that is what thier marketing video says anyway) it does makes sense though.
It could probably even be used as a floating point coprocessor / SIMD unit... sort of like we do GPGPU nowadays. the chip itself was very popular... in basically anything that needed to do any graphics at all even fax machines. Its in alot of familar arcade games as well.
