I think we’d all benefit from a lot more people having an opportunity to give Genera a try. So many things about it are just so different, fascinating, and work well together. Even what we think of as a command line interface today could be so much more than it is.
It was, but Symbolics went out of business. These machines are nearly
impossible to find anymore. There are rumours of being able to run the
VLM on Linux.

Is it possible to try it (or something similar)? If I got it right from the wikipedia article, this is a commercial product.

OpenGenera is probably your best bet.
Nice! I’d been struggling to follow some old links to get OpenGenera running and wasn’t getting anywhere.
