This is probably Ampro Computers' CoreModule line. They come in various
flavors from a PC up to a 386SX and (I believe) even a 486. There are a 
few other vendors of this kind of system, but Ampro tends to be the
industry leader. They have a whole line of CoreModules that stack up
to make any kind of system you want. The footprint stays the same but
the system becomes more "cubic" as you stack them up. There is an
organization that is standardizing the bus used as PC104.

They are at (408) 522-2100 in the US. They have international distributors
if you are located outside the US.
