FWIW
Mike,
FWIW I saw a bunch of the ASCI system for sale at an auction at Brevard Community
College in Titusville Fla about 1 1/2 years ago. There were also several HP 5036s and I
spent all of my money on them so I didn't get any of the ASCI systems. But several
people were snapping them up to put them on E-bay so you may be able to find one there and
that may lead you to someone that has docs for them. IIRC there were ASCI CPU boxs, some
boxs with cassettte tape drives and some kind of expansion chassis for them at the
auction.

I know this is a long shot but I have a nice 6800 based single board
computer, with keypad and LED display. It is mounted in a 2 slot
chassis that has a smoked glass cover and wood sidings.
It's very nice and works well. Problem is that I don't have a
schematic and don't know how the memory and I/O are mapped. It also
has a couple of 16 pin devices that are not installed. I guess I can
buz it out and figure out what is there but that is a massive amount
of work
The system is marked: ASCI u68, System-X.
I have tried an internet search but can't find anything on it. I
think it was used in a class for learning microprocessors back in late
70s.
Anyone have any leads on were I might find a schematic?
