My ACS8000-10 was a Z80 system with MP/M installed. Working condition,
but lost along with an ADDS Regent 25 terminal, a DS50 disk, the left

crackheads needing scrap to peddle, some time back.
Moral of the story is along the lines of "the squeaky wheel gets the
grease", or maybe "money talks but bs walks", when it comes to secure
storage or shop facilities, but then patronage always comes at a price,
too. C'est la guerre, er, vie.
Sorry to wax philosophical.

I had one of those that I gave to Josh. It was mostly working at
the time. It was Z80 based.
Has the one in the listing here had the hard drive platter brutally
removed? Didn't take a close look at all of the photos to be sure.
I think this is one page from the manual related to the 8500 board

Bit thing not in listing is an SA-1004 disk. And I'm suspicious
it is an
8086, but who knows. Certainly has many serials on the back.
