2000 is a 8085 based machine.  It run ONLY Microsoft BASIC( in its original
implementation).  Floppies are 8 inch hard sectored floppies.  Mainstore is
probably 64K bytes or so.

Actually this is a nice little pre PC machine.  I was with a company in the
given time frame that wrote an accounting, inventory, etc system running on
this machine.  It was limited but capable.
