Contacting DEC in the States would probably be good for astonished
silence. PCS is still an independent company, and I'm not sure
the takeover of *Kienzle* included PCS.

PCS was sold by it's founders to Mannesmann a few years ago. Mannesmann
attached PCS to it's subsidiaryt Kienzle, because Kienzle bought from
PCS at that time.

Some years after this, Kienzle was sold to DEC Germany; it's called
Digital Kienzle now.

PCS is still in the Computer business as of last CeBIT (March). The
machine I saw was using an i860.
