It was a massive shame the TV-toy project at Sinclair did not work out. It was a SOC/low cost computer based on the Inmos transputer (Called the T400, an M212 without dedicated link hardware) around 1983. That might have kept Inmos afloat- they were responsible for a lot of the RAM chip innovation, VGA standard, transputer etc. so the world would have looked very different.
I do wonder what could have been with that chip paired with the Slipstream chip, oh well.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transputer TV-toy
