Apparently efforts are underway to get this unreleased product working.

I believe it was aimed at the TT030 desktop "workstation" model of the

Atari did licence UNIX™ and got a really good deal — $10 a seat!

… But the original 68000 version couldn't hack it. No MMU.

But as ever it was too little, too late.
