I think I have one of these in storage, with a daisywheel printer.
Haven't tried doing anything with it yet.
Mine was used as a dedicated word processor (which was CPT's main
business IIRC). There was no documentation with it; the company that
bought them probably had it but had a staff member train the users,
and the user I got mine from had it installed in her home.
HP
7914 (looked like a computer... maybe...)
There is probably a microprocessor inside, but it was sold as a disc
drive, maybe with a cartridge tape drive that uses the block-formatted
HCD tapes (like 9144s). I think the disc drive has about 130MB
capacity. Good for old HP 9000s and maybe 3000s; in fact it would
look very nice next to a 9000 series 540.
HP 79xx and 91yx (for y>1) are usually storage of some sort. (9111 is
a graphics tablet.)

That's called a "dimple-top".
