 Oh, the microFlame.  Never saw a hobbiest system

paperweight for that effort from one of their promotions. 
I got the same treatment from the TI rep when I asked about the I2L version
of the 9900.  Must have also been meant for the military.

Shame--I liked the instruction set on the Nova a lot more than the PDP8.

Nova appealed to me as it had a pdp-8 feel but 16 bit.
