I am  preparing a talk for one of my honours subjects and part of the talk
centres on comparing neural hardware to other architectures.

I need information on what neural hardware is in use (possibly commercially
available) and what it is being used for. I would also like to know why this
direction was chosen as against using a more general purpose parallel
architecture and modelling the neural network on that. Perhaps some feelings
about whether the approach has any future would also be nice and what problems
were encountered in using the system.

Responses can be to the net or mailed to me. If people are interested I will
summarise any personal responses to the net. Possibly someone else has already
asked this question so I would be happy to hear what responses they got.

Thanks in advance,

Jayen.
