Interesting, though this shouldn't be an indictment on HLAs in general, rather the iAPX 432 in particular. Same way the Mach server was only the tip of the iceberg in the sphere of microkernels.

True: the LISP machines, Wirth's Lilith w/ M-code processor, ASOS embedded Ada system, JOP embedded Java processor, and Azul Systems' Vega processors show HLA's can work just fine. Even better than competing offerings in ways. :)
