The PERQ is as dead as a dodo.  PERQ system has closed their doors due to an
inability to sell machines.  PERQ never quite got their shit together on
their first generation machine, and their second generation machine which
they needed to compete high-end micro systems never got off the ground.
Fortunately, Spice in general, and Spice Lisp in particular, are not tied
to the PERQ hardware (whatever its merits).
