I believe that a service organization, Regis Service Co., may still service the machines. They are located in Lowell, MA. The assets of LMI/GigaMos are being held by Coopers&Lybrand in Boston, MA. Included in the assets are the complete rights to LMI's enhancements to the MIT Lisp machine system, a patent on a networking scheme due to Richard Greenblatt (Moby Adressing) and rights to a RISC, tagged architecture machine that was under development.
