|TRON was the only response I received via email that fit the
|requirements (a genuinely new CISC instruction set, not an enhancement
|to some old product).  How long ago was TRON conceived?

For those who are interested, the April-1987 issue of IEEE

In fact, the front cover has a picture of the inventor--Prof.
Ken Sakamura.
