According to the list of MachinePeek values, they at least
designed eight devices:
 
        &FFF8   SJ GP Server
        &FFF9   SJ 80386 unix
        &FFFA   SCSI interface
        &FFFB   SJ Research IBM PC Econet interface
        &FFFC   Nascom 2
        &FFFD   Research Machines 480Z
        &FFFE   SJ Research File Server
        &FFFF   Z80 CP/M
