Corvus got into the clone PC business with Onyx-IMI (IMI of course has
already been making their drives) and later they bought OEMTEK so on
these systems, there was nothing too far of a stretch that they weren't
released. Also there was some pretty big fanfare when Corvus announced
its 386 based servers as they were one of the first companies to use the
new Intel chip at the time.
So I will continue to dig and pursue my efforts to find more out. In
the meantime work has started on this:
http://www.corvusmuseum.com and I should start having a good bulk of the
materials up around May 1st.
If anyone has anything they'd like to contribute - photo's, manuals,
equipment, software please email me and let me know, thanks.

I can say that Corvus PCs did indeed exist. I used
one, and sold lots of them while working for Lawrence S. Epstein Associates in the
1980's.
There were other things Corvus that never got produced, this wasn't one of them.

have been done by Tandon as they bought Corvus around 1987-1988 or so.
Heh. You'll have to beat me to it...
Seriously, though, are you sure this was ever actually manufactured? I
have a bunch of glossy sales stuff from the early 90s that shows a number
of Corvus items made of pure smoke and mirrors.
