If I recall correctly the Xstation 120 (the first of them) used an 8086 (might 
have been an 80186).  The big issue was that you couldn’t do anything with it 
because what was in ROM/FLASH was only smart enough to be able to TFTP the rest 
of the microcode (not terribly useful if you don’t have the image it wants to 
TFTP).

I think the 140 fixed that (and is somewhat telling from all of the Intel flash 
parts on the board).  But I don’t know what CPU it’s using.  The IBM metal can 
is probably the graphics controller.
