 Again, I don't have Honeywell knowledge, but
didn't they create a division
called Honeywell Bull Information Systems, and rebadged multiple systems
under that name?

My only knowledge of this comes from my General Automation days. When their
Motorola based line was loosing market share to the Unix crowd, they
introduced a server called a Honeywell Bull (blue/green nameplate I think)? 

Navy blue background, white "Bull", and a green tree, sort of like the one
on the newer Zenith Data Systems logo?

...
 That system I know for sure was an RS6000. Perhaps HBIS
rebadged more than
just the RS6000. Sounds like it anywho...
 The AP-M sort of looks like a souped-up NEC APC III  (a bit bigger, but same
basic case design).
