 R 3.0 or 3.5, I vaguely remember a port of some other system to run
 on it.  Check some of the web pages you can find.  There was a built
 in graphical windowing system, dynamically loadable drivers, and if 
 you could get the ethernet board, or extra serial ports, you could 
 run multi-user configurations.  It could read/write (through special 
 bundled software) MS-DOS disks, and there was also a DOS board for it
 with an 8088 CPU or something like that, and some RAM to let it 
 actually run DOS, and DOS apps. 
  What wonderful machines these are.  The first ones, though, shipped
with 10MB drives, not 40MB, and it was SYSVR2, not 3.

  I sold these machines at a computer store when I was in high school,
and later had one of my own as my first real UNIX machine.  Stupidly I
sold it many years ago.  Thanks to the assistance of a fellow lister
(hi Mark!) I finally have one now, which I will keep forever.
