I also find it interesting that IBM cited lack of clear evidence that a working 
machine would emerge that they stopped funding.  A friend that worked at SSI
said they had a machine on the floor and checkout was going great.  Maybe the
rumor from bownes that IBM was in it for the technology was correct.  They were
so close, to  have to hear from investment bankers that the bankers couldn't 
fund them.
