Since AT&T never made or resold Sequent and resold Pyramid systems in
competition to Sequent I'm kind of intrigued.

AT&T called them System 7000's (Series 1, 2 or 3)
Pyramid's equivalents were the MIS-2, MIS-4 or MIS-10 models for the 7000
Series 1, MIS-2T, MIS-4T or MIS-10T for the Series 2 and the Series 3
were MIS-S models (MIPS R3000 cpu's instead of Pyramid's RISC designs).

I used to teach for Pyramid's ed services and would be happy to be of
some service if this is actually a Pyramid.
