Might have been Borroughs. DOn't think so though. The actual model isn't really important, I just threw it in in case someone went "Oh, I used to work on those, let me find my old notes " or something.

American mainframes I know, other than IBM, would be Perkin Elmer. NZI Insurance used to run one.

Amdahl, Unisys, Burroughs, Honeywell, NCR and possibly others

(edit. IIRC Honeywell were long gone by mid 90s)

Question has been asked of an ex Burroughs salesman... post here as a place marker to remind me.

(Company A's) system was a B80 or a B90 I think. They were very basic mini-computers. Somebody like ACC would have probably run an A Series mainframe.
