Any chance you were a customer or vendor of Wang? That 80mb drive, dumbed down, for prices around $20k, rings a bell.
That was around 1980 as an ISV -- a Basic Four 610 -- we paid I think $50k? retailed at $70k. 8 user, 256k memory, two 35Mb drives that for $15k a piece you could get the tech to come out and clip the strap on the high order bit of the address space register which would double the usable space. Kinda like getting a discount on a caddy but they deliver the car with the back doors welded shut.
