There are a few copies of late shell builds floating around in private collections that have release predicated on the end of someone's legal liability (shall we euphemistically say). I don't know about complete system images, though.
Oh really? I had assumed it lost long long ago. Since it never got past internal demo (and use in PPC in some ways) I just didn’t think there would be enough copies of it to not get lost very quickly.
it was a joint venture with novell and caldera employees had exposure to the resources, a year or so after the project fell apart.

a lot more people had exposure to it than you'd think. it sounds very interesting to us, but honestly, it was probably pretty obvious to everyone involved that it was a bad idea unless apple was serious about dropping ppc

For those who don’t know it was Apple’s port to Intel before they decided that PPC was the way forward after m68k.

And those guys are all getting up there in years.
