folks i am embarrassed to say that after considering myself to have
become somewhat of an afficionado of Vector ISAs, there is one i
have only just come across, called the ETA10-Q:
https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/76263.76352
apparently ETA Systems was a spinoff of CDC, and lost money and
even had two of its systems destroyed by JVNC when no buyer could
be found for them
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ETA10
i'm looking rather urgently for the ISA so as to ensure it is preserved for
posterity online, apparently it's available at the Computer History Museum
http://50.204.185.175/collections/catalog/102641713
if anyone knows where (or how) this can be made available online please do
advise.
best,
l.
