Yup.8080 + Z80
I had the green screen monitor, twin floppies and a 10MB HDD. I used it for graphics stuff, displaying on a BBC Micro( code in the advanced user guide for the beeb, well, about 10% of what you actually need ).
Can you remember what the killer app was that shipped with it that allowed you to create a document that contained spreadsheet cells, charted info and formatted text?, when that was combined with the superb keyboard it really is a wonder that the IBM PC took off at all.
I am now kicking myself ( metaphorically ) for getting rid of it.

Rrrrrrrrrr......<wrings brain>Arseburgers....the stuff that could do that on PDPs was called AtoZ but AFAIK it didn't get onto the Rainbows. The natural followup to the Rainbow was the DECwriter, so it must've been similar s/w to that. I suspect Doogle will come up with the answer while I'm dealing with kangaroo cocks (see other posts :)
