Dan's message about his Prime made me go glance at the Prime FAQ, and I
noticed these few lines:
* Prime had operational prototypes of the entire Toons system running
in the lab when it was cancelled.
* After the meeting to announce the closing of Prime, engineers
returned to the lab and continued working on booting Primos on
the Toons system. They were successful.
The Toons hardware was the next generation, in development when Prime went
under; I hadn't realised that it was essentially operational though. Does a
complete example was ever rescued and now exists either in a museum or in
private hands?
cheers
