They are multi-user CP/M (or MP/M) machines circa 1982-1986, mentioned
here from time to time (we really need a comprehensive database that
describes these machines so that people can reference the database before
posting about the same stuff over and over). Having nothing to do with an
Alto, they are worth anywhere from free to whatever someone would be
willing to pay (which may surprise/shock you).
