"When I knew Hombre better, in 1993-1994, it was two chips, and using the PCI bus and a PC-industry GPIO for all of the basic I/O stuff. "
"Some simulation has been started, much remains to be done."
It depends what simulation means.
So I think it can be safely concluded that there was unfinished Hombre prototype in hardware.
