I think that perhaps the computer came from some local
government agency. I
don't exactly know which one. I think it would be pretty cool to see if
anything is left on the drive. My friend said that his wife was able to take
it home when they upgraded to something newer. I can't remember who it was
she worked for, but I do agree that it was dealing with a government agency.

Umm..... Standard loadout would have probably been a customized version of
DOS (ZDS actually had a couple cool additions) with some of the following;
WordPerfect V5.1, Lotus 1-2-3, dBase III or IV, and Harvard Graphics.
Least wise those were the standard apps available in the late 80's early
90's. Since it's listed as a Honeywell Bull, probably software to connect
to a DPS-6 or DPS-8 class Mainframe.
