I picked up one of the terminal units for the Computer

and just took at look at whats inside. It is a repackaged Burroughs

I'd be interested in seeing pics of the insides of the main
server unit.
Convergent OEMed this stuff to lots of people. I think the
Microdata 1000 may be one as well.
I found one of a five disc set today for what appears to be
CTOS rel 9.1-D for the 1000.
I have a Convergent CP-001 (B26) that boots and runs great from the
hard drive. I just don't have any passwords for either the OS or the
court-reporting app it runs.
I'd commit an unnatural act for the means to get root on the thing.
