                    error detection logic coupled to said first and                   
          second    processors which compares address and data                        
          information    generated by each of said processors on said                 
          write cycle    when said processor control logic returns                    
          control of the      system bus to said first processor, said                
          logic generating a       signal indicative of a match between               
          said address and data    signals of said first and second                   
          processors.
