Sord made CP/M machines (one, I think, used twin Z80 cpus) and a bigger
machine with a 68000 and a Z80 in it - it ran CP/M-68K, the Z80 was an
i/o processor.  This is from seeing an ad for them several years ago.
Yours sounds like one of the bigger ones; I don't know what the serial
number means.  The best place to ask is alt.folklore.computers.
