I think that perhaps you have an M20, which is in the
L1 series. Have a look at this page:

and see if that doesn't look something like your unit.
There's some specs for the M20 at:

  I just picked up an Olivetti L1 Computer at Goodwill.
The CPU, keyboard, and disk drives are in one unit,
kind of like an Apple III. The monitor is seperate, and
gets its power from the main unit. All the main keys
have BASIC statement on them (PRINT, OPEN, INPUT,
etc...). When it boots up, it says:

  Bootstrap Loader Version 1.0
  Insert Disk And Press Enter.

  Does anyone know anything about it? I couldn't find
any information on the internet. Does it have BASIC in
ROM? If so, how do I get to it? If anyone has any disks
or manuals, that would be great!

  Thanks,
  Owen
