AFAIK The 1108 is identical to the 8010 just like the 1186 is identical to the

8010,6085s came with Viewpoint, 1108,1186s came with Interlisp
If you run Viewpoint on a DandeLion, the FP LEDS will read '8010' if you run
Interlisp, the LEDS will read '1108'
1108s and 8010s are DandeLions (1109 is Dandetiger same as 1108 but with (AMD
9511?) FP hardware)
And on that note... I've got a couple of
Xerox 1108 (DandeTiger)
machines of which I am very fond and for which I would like to find more
maintenance information. Anyone got a set of blueprints about their
person?
Ooh, very nice. I have one, but in a dilapidated state. I only have
minimal documentation for the 8010, and none for the 1108.
Try contacting the folks over at DigiBarn. Bruce Damer, the proprietor,
used to work on 8010s and they have a working one. He might be able to
help you.
