harris-lanier box

[wayne ross]

  A friend has a Harris/Lanier box running Xenix v '3.0B1.7.'  This appears to
be an early version of SCO-XENIX circa 1984-85.  The only label on the
box is Harris/Lanier C4200.  He has the Xenix manuals which bear SCO &
Harris copywrites, but no hardware manuals.

  My guess is that this maybe an 8086 box and the Xenix some version 7 flavor.
Does anyone in netland know anything about this beast?  My friend uses and
loves the little fella.  He has a small service business.  He asked me 
wether (a) any xenix upgrade is feasible and (b) the degree to which he and
little orphan Annie maybe related.

  My initial reaction is to tell him to ____can the box, buy a 386 and start
over. 

  Any and all advice, opinion, history, or observations would be appreciated.

  Thanks
