[comp.sys.misc] What's a Northern Telecom 585?

jmaynard@thesis1.hsch.utexas.edu (Jay Maynard) (11/24/90)

A friend has been recently given a Northern Telecom 585 computer, with several
terminals, printers, and other peripherals. There's only one problem: It was
a county's data processing system, and they cleaned off the disk before they
turned it loose. Neither he nor I have any idea as to what it is. He does have
a couple of tapes, but no manuals.

Anyone out there know just what this beastie is?
