I am looking for ANY kind of information on the following computer: Sord343SX (Main) The unit itself is an oblong box, about two feet deep, 6 inches wide, and one foot tall. I am looking for such info as processor type and speed, hardware configuration, and operating system. If you even heard of Sord, then you know more about it than me!:-) Billy D'Augustine Azog-Thoth@cup.portal.com

Sord made CP/M machines (one, I think, used twin Z80 cpus) and a bigger machine with a 68000 and a Z80 in it - it ran CP/M-68K, the Z80 was an i/o processor. This is from seeing an ad for them several years ago. Yours sounds like one of the bigger ones; I don't know what the serial number means.
