In June of 1986, HP introduced the 9000/560 (9060AM). This machine was basically a fully loaded 550. It came with three CPUs, 8 MB of RAM and a 6-channel MUX. The 560 had a list price of $44,950.

The 9050 was obsoleted in July of 1988.

Collector's Notes:

The 550s have not held up particularly well over time. As of 2013, the museum had two units. Both units have non-functioning power supplies. The system control boards are also subject to damage from battery corrosion.
