I have an HP branded dial box, an A4362A. It looks identical front and
back to the photos of the SGI DLS80-1022 on Wikipedia. I have the
stand for it, but seem to be missing the two brackets that screw on to
the back of the case to hold the stand in place.

Maybe there's some relationship to the SGI
dial boxes?? I have an SGI
one but don't know anything about the IBM ones. They were built by
Danaher and Seiko and both SGI and Sun offered those models...
I have seen the same dial box, as well as the "Button Box" and
possibly the CAD puck with the crosshairs, for HP and, IIRC, Sun
systems. It's a fair bet they're all based on the same models.
