Chuck Moore, author of Forth, designs CPUs in his kitchen. Not FPGAs,
fast small silicon. It takes some funding to get a fab run, but if you
have a chip, funding shouldn't be too too tough. Chuck's stuff is
weird, but it screams. So the means to make it exist. How big is another
matter. I like to think Microsoft, for example, is an unfortunate
(for the rest of us) fluke.
