... stuff about FPS being first VLIW...

It is my understanding that FPS purchased the basic design from Glen
Culler. Culler continued his design activities and spun up a company
for rev 7 of the basic design (The infamous Culler-7) down in Santa
Barbara. 

Glen is still at it, and perhaps the 8th, 9th or 10th edition will
gain a popular following.
