Any of these lying around? I ask every year or so...
I had both at work, and want one again.
Thanks,

I have had ebay searches running for 10+ years and have never turned
up anything. I think these things are extremely scarce to
non-existent at this point. I don't recall hearing of any in the
hands of collectors anywhere, but of course, as soon as I say this,
someone will pop up and say "I have 3". :-)

That must makes things difficult.

Yeah, I think in the CHM's catalog is about the only place I've been
able to find them. It's good to know that at least 1 instance is
preserved, my "scarce to non-existent" was referring to marketplace
availability for collectors. I've been looking for these "graphics
supercomputers" for the Computer Graphics Museum for about 10 years
now and so far haven't had any leads.

I am pretty sure Ira Moser had a Stardent for sale a while back, maybe
7 years ago? I am also pretty sure I have seen a Stardent on Ebay 5
years ago or so.
Just to make you feel bad...
