Its a vme based deskside machine, about the size of a sun3/160.
m68k based (might even be 68010), ran B.O.S (Bull Operating System)
which was svr3 (I believe) variant). MFM/ESDI disks. You _could_
add a network card, but it was supported via some bizarre OS addon
that only allowed you a maximum of 32 sockets open on the system
at any one time.
(I had four of these back when I worked at city university :)
