No, that would be select DPS-8 models.  The DPS-6 is basically a 
Minicomputer.  It runs GCOS-6 and maybe other OS's.

Someone *really* needs to save this system.  It can't be me for 
multiple reasons.  These systems are *VERY, VERY* rare to find in 
Hobbyist hands.  Since this is the system that Sellam had, I think 
there is only one, maybe two, other systems in Hobbyist hands.
