Nice collection. I'd forgotten about the

software ran on these
respective processors?
OS-wise the 32016 ran something called Panos, with Pandora
as the firmware - mostly written in Modula-2. Acorn
(working with Logica) attempted a Xenix port, and some
documentation references Xenix as being available, but I
don't think it was ever released; having to run all the
I/O across the Tube interface just proved to be too much
of a bottleneck.
I'm pretty sure I ran both Genix and then Xenix on the
Logical Microcomputer Co. 32016 we bought.
