Yes I know about Perihelion and their OS Helios. I have it on my webpage
(it has been released for free for the transputer). I know they were
involved with the Atari Transputer Workstation as it runs Helios, but I
didnt know Commodore had one too.

Yes, this is what I was thinking of. Tim King started his own
transputer company. "Perry Helion" should be "Perihelion".
That was its name. Helios was the OS.
