Ah, the (un)famous "Blue Box" !
I used such a system back in the early 80's. I do not recall which OS
was used, if any. The programming language was PL/M, and the output was
to be burned into an EPROM (2712??)
My system had 3 8" floppy drives, SSSD, 250K , IIRC.
The system we developped (I

Show us a photo.
Is it this one?
The multibutton phones like Merlin used them. Not quite rj45 not quite rj11.

It is my understanding that RJ-45 and RJ-48 are physically identical,
Just curious what processor and what OS were you running on it, what model
chassis? You dont hear a lot about MDS systems even in this list

I'm not-so-seriously looking for an Intel MDS system :)
I have no idea what one is worth though. Vintage computer prices are all
over the place.
I had a lot of fun recently restoring an iPDS and building some boards for
it (the multimodule adapter and a few multimodules for it). I have thought

In keeping with a previous discussion about reducing a collection size,
I have an intel MDS system I am kind of looking to sell. This system
consists of the processor box, dual floppy drives, two keyboards (one
missing a keycap), and monitor. Unfortunately, no manuals or software
came with it

I'm trying to source a new I/O cable for a Convergent WorkSlate (this one is
grody from degenerating plasticizers). It's 8P8C with a little offset snag
reminiscent of a DEC MMJ, but it's the width of an RJ-11: while an "RJ-45"
Ethernet cable is too wide, a phone handset cord is the right width even
