Some Factoids: Formed from the two companies Stellar and 
Ardent, then sold to the company Kubota.  Essentially the 
reimagining of the original Apollo computer for Supercomputer
visualization.  Perhaps 1986-1991.  I'd agree that the display
without the computer (display processor) is pretty limited.
