Sure you did. What were they? The only successful transputer was the T414 and it never made it outside academia.

Well, I believe there were military radar projects that shipped in reasonable quantities and served for reasonable lifetimes.
I think I remember some medical imaging products as well?
I don’t dispute that the Transputer was ultimately unsuccessful, but it wasn’t completely unused in real-world products.
See also TI’s C40, which was quite similar and similarly successful.
