I can not see the picture but could it be an alphabook? Forgive me if this sounds like a joke,, but there a very short lived hardware called an Alphabook. Ran very hot, to hot for a laptop and weighed 14 pounds. If you have one I would hold onto it, People have mistakeny thought it was laptop (same dimensions). A friend picked on up for $25 because the person thought t was a broken laptop. This is a real Alpha. jules.richardson99 at gmail.com> wrote: group on Facebook has one (missing its keyboard[1]), and having seen some photos, although it seems to be mostly a generic PC-compatible with 8-bit ISA, it's notable for having a "video in" connector on the back, as well as LAN in/out ports (proprietary? presumably some kind of ring network though) someone tried making a PC-compatible with a few built-in extras as a selling point (not that uncommon back then), and of course it didn't work out. leading back to the motherboard and an 8042 near to where the keyboard connects, so there's a possibility that it can be wired to a standard AT (or possibly XT) keyboard - although of course maybe the scan codes or even the protocol are completely different, and the owner has themselves a nice boat anchor...

From what I can make out from the photos, IC dates seem to be in 1987. I don't know what CPU it has - the owner just mentioned it as being pre-'386 - but it's odd to see an 8 bit ISA bus in something so late (and so with the inclusion of LAN hardware and the video input port, maybe it was built with a specific purpose in mind)

Yes, it's a desktop system.
