This was the box System V Release 4 Unix was ported on. The Amiga Unix
was based on the AT&T SVR4 code -- an old colleague of mine worked on
both at AT&T and Commodore.
My wife owned one as well... it was AT&T's attempt to (pre-NCR) go intot
the commercial computer business against DEC and Sun and the early
office automation/mini/workstation folks.
It had an AT&T designed 32 bit microcomputer. The 3b product line ran
from 3b20 (ex-telephone-switch brains) through the
3b2/310 up through at least a 3b2/1000. They all ran SysVRel 3.2 and
later SVR4 Unix.
TCP was an expensive add-on product.
