Polymorphic Computers

I was checking the Polymorphic Systems computers I have against
the "The Big List" and found an 8824. It is a partial chassis but
looks similar to the others except it is designed for 8" drives.
Since it is not complete, I'll have to check in the Engineering
stuff to see if there is a description of it. I also found a
chassis model 88DS. It doesn't match with the number in "The Big
List" so I'll check further into that.


Regarding the others, from the "System 88 User's Manual",
copyright 1979.

1.1 SYSTEM 88 MODELS

The System 88 product line consists of the System 8813,
available with up to 3 mini-floppy drives; the System 8810
with one mini-floppy drive, and the 88/MS add-on with 2 large
floppy drives.

The 8813 and 8810 models are available with optional
double-sided, double density, mini-floppy disk drives. The
88/MS, an add-on storage for the 8813, is available with either
double or single-sided, double density large floppy disk
drives.
