White MDS-800 Re: new find: an Intel MDS 800

   I just looked at it again and realized that it has a SAB 8080 CPU in it!
SAB 8080 CPUs are scarce (here in the US anyway). I wonder how one ended up
in this machine. Perhaps Siemens built more of it than we thought. It would
be interesting to check the manufacturer's brands on some of the other parts.
