there were desktop models sold by Symbolics (and I think TI too)
<fseidel>
but they were quite expensive, I don't think you'd see them outside companies and universities
<fseidel>
not really a "personal computer"
<andlabs>
also excellent that the only actual simulators of lisp machines that run genera are... dec alpha hardware extensions
<andlabs>

cr1901_modern: god yes. when I was at the Vintage Computer Festival: Pacific North West, and one of the exhibits was lisp machines and they had like 5 of them and spent basically the whole 2 days trying to repair them so that at least one would be working
<Foone>
I think they got an award at the end for "most magic smoke released"
