Intel 432, Symbolics Lisp machines, probably a host of others.
Such things have been attempted, and are now consigned to the
ash heaps of history.

It should be obvious why. When you have good, fast general
purpose hardware, you can implement all sorts of cockamamie
ideas on it, and if something doesn't work out, you can try
something else. When you start implementing those ideas in
hardware and they don't work out, you're left with a useless
boat anchor.
