I have a Commodore Pet 8032 which is one of the most powerful pet machines. I found an ethernet adapter for it. I believe the microcontroller on the enthernet adapter has more computing power than the computer it connects it to. Still though it's cool as all heck.

In the Atari ST community there's a hard drive / floppy emulator and network interface called CosmosEx that uses a Raspbery Pi board internally. The Pi has _far_ more CPU horsepower than the 8mhz 68000 ST itself.
