The box is kaypro-1 (81-021) written all over the outside but, the board is apparently 4-84 and it's equipped with handyman, Advent turbo rom and a 2mb Ramdisk. I tell people it says kaypro-1 (number 1!) and they say two full height drives with slots horizontal but, mine has two half height two sided drives mounted vertical. Apparently it was a 56, 57, 58, 59, 60 Fochevromercysler! Allison PS: Fochevromercysler was one name given to a a mishmash of engine, transmission body, suspension parts that came from Ford, Chevy, Mercury, Chrysler. Seems a friend of mine had no loyalty to any one car.
