 Picked this thing up at Wacky Willy's in Portland,
OR for $5 with a floppy
drive(actually two 5.25" drives in a case with a PS). Not quite sure what
to think of it. It says ATR8000 SWP Microcomputer Products on the front,
lighted power switch on front, and on the back we have two 13-pin Molex
connectors marked Peripheral Out and Computer In, and three edge-connectors 
That is a (iirc) CP/M(?) box for an atari 800.  I believe it plugs into the
800 (or other 8-bit atari) and the atari is the terminal for the CP/M
Machine.  Pretty amazing device.  (Pretty amazing that I recognized the
name! 8^)
