I think that that is Steve Ciarcia's 64180-based SBC, which ran various
forms of CP/M. It was featured in the Sept and Oct 1985 issues of Byte
(which I just happen to have; I can fax you the article if you want).
I'd love to get one of those...I even saw a message once in comp.os.cpm
that one of the co-authors was trying to work a deal with Steve to unearth
an old stock of those and offer them for sale.

Well, unless someone else pops up, you're probably the ONLY woman into
this sort of thing. You're like the Grace Hopper of vintage computer
enthusiasts :)

BTW, what's this? Someone is going to sell me one and all I know is that
it runs CP/M.
