It is a "box" machine line the early
IBM portable or Compaq portable.
It has a monochrome screen (CRT), somewhat to left of center. Left of the
screen is "open space". To the right of the screen are three 1/2 height
5.25" drive bays running horizontally (on this machine it has a floppy,
a hard drive and what looks like a filler plate). Below the drive bays
there are four "knobs" and what looks like it may be a switch. On the far
right (beside the knobs) it looks like they keyboard cable comes out of a
hole in the front panel.
I have posted the picture he sent at:
Anyone know what this is?
The name Columbia comes to mind when I saw this photo.
