TEMPEST hardened computer certainly isn't a new market, see e.g. http://apitech.com/products/sn6730tf-tempest-laptop-notebook...

It is however a very niche market. For server rooms, it's much cheaper to harden the room, which limits the market to desktop and notebooks...

Old is New Again meme. ;) True: rooms or safe's are best route. There's also more suppliers for that and more willing to work with non-defense customers. However, you've always been limited on desktop and notebooks in high security assessment given all the functionality (esp wireless) in them. There's just way too much risk. So, I recommended hardened thin-clients/monitor/keyboard/mouse plus key servers in a shielded room, no wireless anything, shielding of building from external signals where possible, and of course a lot of distance around the building. Costs quickly become an issue and most just don't do TEMPEST/EMSEC at all. Open season when the attacks get democratized. ;)

Amazing, thanks for sharing! This is why I enjoy HN - I learn at least one new thing a day.
