I received my Xerox 820-II in the mail today, all the way from a good friend and fellow collector in California.
Firstly, the Xerox 820 is not a printer, it's a very old computer from Xerox. You can read about it here:

12" Monitor, 64KB of RAM, and a 4Mhz Z80A CPU.
The one I have is from mid-1982. It has 2 Floppy disk drive Cabinets (each has 2x 5.25" Drives in it). Also included were some spare parts (mainboard, some expansion cards, an extra keyboard, etc). One of my favorite things about this machine is that it doesn't run MSDOS. It runs CP/M, which predates DOS by quite some time, and is much better in my opinion (except if you need partitions greater than 8MB...)
I just need to make some system disks for it, and It'll be complete.
