What is a Sirius?

It was also marketed as the Victor 9000. It was an 8086-based box which ran
DOS and CP/M, but wasn't really IBM-compatible. Hi-res, monochrome graphics
and a (usually) 10 mb hard drive.

The system was designed by Chuck Peddle, who I think was involved with the
design of the 6800 and 6502 microprocessors.
