The Hyperion computer unit looks a lot like an SX-64. At least Commodore got some use from the designs they bought.

How about Hyperion at NASA?

Hyperion provides a high resolution hyperspectral imager capable of resolving 220 spectral bands (from 0.4 to 2.5 µm) with a 30 meter spatial resolution.

Back in my day, we didn\'t have water. We only had Oxygen and Hydrogen, and we\'d just have to shove them together.

@Odin

He's the guy they're gong to give the OS to if A Inc. collapses.  They figure it's less likely someone will be able/willing to take it away from him.

@mikeymike:
Aha! Hyperion is really a Titan subsidiary then! And Titan being all MOS orientated. Oooooer...the plot is deepening :-).

@wain:
And you don't wanna mess with it, at all :-). Hm....I think I should reread Hyperion some time.
