Is the TI version a complete, working, available system?  If so,
on which machines?  Does it depend on special hardware?  Are there
any *other* native implementations?  On stock hardware?

Unfortunately, most people have to base their view of CLOS on PCL
because it's the only version for stock hardware they've seen.
