Luther,  You've got either a Model-16 (most likely), a model-6000, or
an upgraded Model-12.  The major distinction (not important to you at this
point) is whether the 68000 has a 6 or 8 Mhz crystal.

Basically, all three of these are good reliable CP/M platforms (can run
both CP/M-2.2 and CP/M-68K).  You can also run TRSDOS (a Radio Shack
operating system) and the multi-user XENIX (Unix clone) if you have
enough memory and a hard disk.  Give TriSoft a call at (512) 472-0744
for some free info, or send me your US Mail address.

If you turn on the machine, the disks spin up, and the message
INSERT DISKETTE shows up on the screen, then the thing is probably
working (there is a self-test on powerup).
