There is actually very little similarity between the 160 and the 6000 series
PPs. The instruction set is vaguely alike, but that's about it.
PPs have NO front panel. Nor does the rest of the system. There's only the
deadstart panel (a 12 word boot "rom") and the operator display (a peripheral
controlled by one of the PPs).
