I have here two ICL Quattro terminal servers made way back in 1984
All i know about these systems is that they use an 8086 processor
They both have 64MB hdd's larger and heavier than a brick
The memory 'cards' in these things are about twice the size of your ega graf card in your 'old' 386
In their day they ran CDOS which is some form of DOS as far as i have gathered
They were used by an insurance company that was here before i moved in
The hardware in these is nothing like i have seen before
I was wondering if anyone would be able to get or assist in getting at least one of these going
I have two so there are parts if needed
There isn't much info out there on the web about these
I fired a few emails to people who once worked with them
And i also found this link which does have a few pics

If anyone is interested drop me a line and ill bring em in tommorrow (oops today 8P)
