So, I seem to have aquired a Burroughs B20.  Looks like it was meant
to be used as a word processing system.  It's running an operating
system called BTOS.

What else is there to know about this system?  Can it run any sort of
"real" operating system?  Anyone have any software for it that they no
longer want...?

Thanks!
--Pat.
