Interesting. The M8192 is a PDP-11/73 CPU Board. Is the M8192 dual or
quad height? Be interesting to know what the rest of the cards are.
Sounds like some kind of OEM setup.

I can't imagine the only "MUSE" I'm aware of being related, but it's
possible. There was a Word Processing package for Harris Mini's called
MUSE. However, I'm sure this isn't related.
