Apparently the context suggests this particular machine had not been built and delivered at the time the documents were written, so it doesn't show that NSA had this exact machine at that time (though maybe they had other computers that were this fancy or fancier).

Well. WinsorGreen is the successor design of WinsorBlur so I am assuming Blue exists and it's just a matter of time to finish building Green.

I also guess the machine will be built in some form, just that the documents probably don't reflect three-year-old computational capabilities, but might reflect something more like present-day capabilities.
