Nice bit of kit in it's day :-)

It can take two (four with the right cards) cpus. If you're lucky it has
fast Ross cpus, but few did. What you need to do is get the first 7
digits of the CPU part numbers and google them (501-xxxx or whatever),
it'll be written on the connectors probably.

You can offload web or other network services to an SS20. It's probably
a bit slow for a desktop box these days.

I've sold 100s of them and have yet to see anything better put together.
