Very interesting. I get the feeling from the description though, that
it was targetted to replace SAGE, rather than reimplementing the SAGE

In any case, it never did replace SAGE, so my question is still
there, along with why the 32 didn't do (perhaps too early as a solid-
state machine, to make it worthwhile).
if the SAGE hardware had been reimplemented in
solid-state
It was reimplemented by IBM As the IBM 4020. Two were built
one became the AN/FSQ-32 timesharing system at SDC.

SAGE was already an obsolete technology because of the ICBM
before the transistorized systems were built.
