But that's different iron, obviously named by someone with no sense of
what had gone before, or someone who thought that alphabet soup and a
few years would be enough to avoid confusion. The 9000 Series 520 aka
9020 aka 9000 Model 20 was one of the first machines to ship under the
9000 label, a 32-bit (potentially-)multiprocessing stack architecture
from 1982.

Take a look at <http://www.reanimators.org/hp/> for some pictures of
an Integral (top) and my 9000/520 (bottom). I think you will agree,
it's not what you're thinking of.
