Since the Honeywell 200 computer was developed as a competitive alternative to 
migration to the System/360 for 1401 users, while many people used that 
computer at the time, the set of "people currently using a Honeywell 200 for 
production use" is very likely to have no members.

Of course, somebody in a computer museum somewhere may be turning one on 
occasionally to demonstrate it.
