No, we are not. The P800 series used a card format, the name of which

P2000. It was marketed by Philips Austria, and was a pre-PC system. I
believe there was a CP/M based P3000, but I'm not quite sure.

computers called P800, which also branched out to the PTS series and
possibly other.
Could I be lucky to find other list members interested in these
products? I know of a few, but there surely must be others. I'm trying
