Surviving UK Transputer systems...

Meiko was actually started by a bunch of former INMOS engineers. They made
their own hardware/software. They had several Computing Surfaces through
the years. The early ones were transputer based and then they switch to
Sparc processors.....

I remember using a Meiko computer surface way back when, but I suspect that
may have just been a bunch of Inmos boards behind the scenes (or something
else, and didn't even qualify as a strict transputer system)

Details on the web seem rather hazy unfortunately.
