Does anyone know of a Haywood 6000 computer?

A friend is in possession of one but is unable to do anything with it.
All I know so far is that an AP type chassis, containing 5.25in full height 
winchester disk drive and FDD. Has 4 25-way D-type connectors at the
back of which one is for VDU & another for Printer.

On power-up the monitor displays "FDP, Monitor V3.2" and a prompt ">"
is returned.

It doesn't go to look at the winne or FDD on power_up.

Things I would like to know :-

	- Who was it made by ?
	- What operating system does it use?
	- How can I access the winne & FDD?
	- What are the other 2 ports at the back for?


Thanks in advance.
