Sounds like they may have confused the A22 Control Unit with a CPU? Although that doesn't explain any HDDs ... all the A22 pictures I've found show it having just a 5.25" floppy drive. In line with the confusion theme, perhaps the "HDDs" are really tape cartridges?
If the price is right, maybe it could be a fun peripheral project for one of the guys with the Multiprise systems? :O Best, Sean On Wed, Oct 7, 2015 at 11:56 PM, Jay Jaeger <[email protected]> wrote: > Something does not quite add up.
