IBM never intended to manufacture the LongTrail. They just did the design.
Manufacturing was supposed to be done by UMAX and Tatung. And they didn't
believe in Linux when Steve killed the Mac clones.
If you order 10000 boards, you may be able to convince Tatung to manufacture
them again, though (please ask Edmund Humenberger <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> first!).
Question is: are the parts still available? And then I'm thinking VLSI Golden
Gate II and Apple/TI Hydra (or the VLSI plug-in replacement Pierxx).
