I don't, but I did go to a job interview at a company in
Tiptree, Essex, England where they had one, in about 1988.

I read later that the Singer System 10 was an early RISC
machine, although it's not clear that Singer designed it
with the knowledge that making it RISC would make it
faster. It may have simply been a minimal CPU design that
came out RISC-like in hindsight. Anyone know any more
details?
