Neat. The memory-mapping code would probably have to be rewritten (if it
has a 1 MB SIMM, one would hope it could access it...), and it's not
clear what I/O and especially what graphics, if any, it has. (Alas, the
seller doesn't sound very helpful, given his answer to the question
asked, so it would probably require a good bit of detective work before
the coding started.)

There is/was a Voysys company that made some kind of telephone-related
hardware. usedphones.com offers a CD with a manual for one of their
systems (no idea whether it has anything to do with the board) for $30.
Attempts to get to their web site, http://www.voysys.com/, fail.
