Are there any known lists/promo material/price sheets from between 80-83 re= garding WECo computing hardware such as the 3B20D and 3B20S? More broadly,= is it documented at all what hardware models made it out before the remova= l of the Bell logo and transition from WECo to AT&T ownership of the 3B and= related technologies? Aside from the cover illustration of a 3B20S on the UNIX 4.1 manual and hav= ing seen a MAC-Tutor on eBay once, I can't say I've seen any other WECo bra= nded computation hardware with Bell logos. The only photos I can find of a= 3B20D are a later AT&T branded issue. Any leads? Would it have just been BellMAC stuff and 3B20 systems before t= he change in logo? Based on the manual I recently received, the 3B5 may ha= ve also made it out during the WECo period but after dropping the Bell logo= , somewhere between the consent degree being produced and the completion of= divesting WECo. - Matt G. P.S. In the bigger picture, I'm slowly starting to aggregate info together = on Bell/WECo's computer hardware activities tangential to but distinct from= UNIX developments. Stuff like the 3B computers, BellMAC stuff, etc. If t= here's already a community/resources in this focused area I'd happily diver= t those efforts to a more focused collective.
