The MDS800 was about 13" tall, 28" deep and 19" wide box and the 8"
disk
box was another 8" or so tall. Nice multibus system. Most of the MDS

integrated crt and seperate keyboard, did a lot of development time on
those. I wouldn't mind finding one.

Myself I'd find a 80/10 or 80/20 or BLC80/204 for multibus more appealing
