Doesn't matter. Generic CPUs were getting 32-bit word lengths and increased speed, and Lisp compiler technology had improved to yield fast code on those CPUs.

Doesn't matter. Generic CPUs were getting 32-bit word lengths and increased speed, and Lisp compiler technology had improved to yield fast code on those CPUs. The maker of Golden Common Lisp partnered with a hardware company to make a "Lisp machine on an ISA card" solution for PCs called the Hummingboard (not to be confused with present-day SBCs using that name). It was just a 386 and gobs of memory on a card. (this predates the Compaq 386-based PC). A special build of Golden CL sent compiled code to be executed on the 386 instead of the PC's main CPU.
