Wim is correct, and I miscopied the information from the front of the machine.
I went back to the warehouse and it actually says "rt 1000" where the "rt"
is in
a cursive-like script. Must have been too many machines in that warehouse and
not enough light. Sorry for any confusion.

I did pick up an HP 9000/C110, CPU only. Is anyone familiar with these
machines?
This box has the A4071B graphics card installed, but I don't have one of
the two
monitors HP says must be used. Will a standard PC-type VGA monitor work, or do
I really need to find an HP A4032A or A4033A?

I also picked up the DEC MicroServer (DEMSA-A) as well as a nifty little
data line monitor
called the ByteBug (model 625) made by Hard Engineering out of Huntsville,
Alabama,
in the early 1980's. Google didn't turn up anything on either the ByteBug
or Hard Engineering.
By any chance has anyone heard of them?


Cheers,

Dan
