Is anyone on the list familar with this one? I found one yesterday.
It's the size of a large tower case and has two 5 1/4" floppy drives
mounted vertically in the top. There are also two "Write Protect" switches
on the top of the front panel indicating that it may have internal hard
drives. The thing that caught my attention was that it had two disks in the
drives and one of them is marked CPM-86. I found a brief description in
the 1985 Tektronix catalog. They call it a "Local Graphics Processing Unit"
and is used with the 4105, 4106, 4107 and 4109 terminals. From the
decription, I *think* it makes them into stand alone CAD systems.
Does anyone have any docs for this thing?
Joe
