Around 6 to 7 P856's / P857's were scrapped at my workplace around
5 years ago. I saved one complete system and a few CPU and core boards .
The machines were used in production testing of watch IC's.
I did not have more room at the time, which is a shame because they where
nice, real blinken-light machines. Separate rows of switches and lights
for address and data, separate switches to select one of 16 cpu registers,
etc.

Mr. Fox,
From the machines mentioned in the subject: line, I would have guessed
this message was partially aimed at me, athough I have never been called
'Fox' :-)....
I do have a few P800 machines, and a fair amount of documentation for them.
I am looking for a P857 computer myself.
Yes, I'd like an P856 or P857 as well if one ever turns up in the UK.
It's the one main subseries I've not managed to track down yet...
