Years after the end of the events of the show, similar to Atari and Commodore, Cardiff Electric will become a retro-product company. And much like the Commodore 64, the Giant will become a cult classic in the retro community. During that time, someone finds the ROM board with Cameron's original OS and release it out on the net. Due to the double-sided design of the motherboard, as ingenious as it was, resulted in problems when trying to replace the chips and resistors, leading to some users doing limited runs of replacement parts for it or repurposing the case for modding purposes (such as replacing the monochrome screen with a colored screen and replacing damaged motherboards with a UsefulNotes/RaspberryPi).
