There is no legally freely available version.  However, the guy who
owned the IP rights passed away a couple of years ago, and the user
community developed a Lisp Machine emulator that runs under x86-64 Linux.

"The people that matter" sort-of "look the other way" if you're just
a hobbyist playing around, but "commercial" use of OG under the emu
without a proper license is discouraged.

To support Dave Schmidt and what's left of Symbolics, I bought a keyboard
about six months ago, and am building a USB adapter box.

I've also got a MacIvory board set, but haven't had time in the past 
six months to get the Mac that it depends on up and running...

I have a 164LX system here as well that I was going to run it on, but never
found the time to get it up and running, and then I just ran it on the
emulator.
