Hi!
I found an ICL Quattro desktop computer.
It looks in good shape, I had to repair only the PSU.
Powering it up, I see disk activity, but I haven't his (proprietary?) monitor.
On the back, I see a bunch of serial ports (DCE? DTE?) and a DB15 connector, I
guess for monitor/kbd attachment.
I tried to connect a terminal to the serial ports, with null modem and straight
settings, but I had no answers.
Do someone have some infos about the proprietary monitor/kbd port?
Can it be run without the original monitor/kbd system?
Or should I think about it as a... doorstopper? :D
Thanks!

I can't help with the query unfortunately, but I would love to know where in Italy
your collection is? In fact, it would be interesting to know where all the interesting
collections in Italy are, as I do visit the country with some regularity. Annoyingly, I
noticed just now that there is one near Siracusa, and I might have been able to visit that
this past summer.
