AFIK all of the MDS2xxs (including the blue ones) are series II machines.
I've never heard of anything that Intel designated as a Series I. Most of
the Series II machines have blue cases but some of them have white cases.
The white ones are thought to be later machines but no one knows for sure.
Just to further confuse the issue, ANY of the MDS2xxs can be upgraded to
series III by adding a 8086 Resident Processor Card. I believe the MDS800s
can also be upgraded to Series III the same way.

- I always
Jules,
I'd love to hear what kind of hardware, software and manuals you got with
your's.
Joe
I'll have a look and see if I can do some sort of inventory.
We've got a series 1 machine as it turns out too (blue case) thought it belonged to one of the group, but apparently
it is owned by
the museum. I'll have a look-see as to exctly what that one is too (I
know there's no docs or disks with that machine though)
cheers
Jules
