Industrial Micro Systems - CPS-Q6A Board
At the Spring 1986 Comdex show IMS (or Intercontinental Micro Systems as they were called at that time) introduced this board.

IMS CPS-Q6A

Taking advantage of Hitachi's HD64180 chip, Intercontinental Micro has accomplished an unprecedented feat at the time of putting four Z80 users on a single S-100 card. Each user has his/her own on-board HD64180 processor, 128K of RAM, and two serial ports. The new board, called the CPS-Q6A, ran at 6 MHz with provisions to run at 10 MHz. An I/O mapped board, the CPS-Q6A could be added to practically any S-100 system without hardware modification.

As an extra feature, any one or more of the four user circuits could be used instead as a printer server while the remaining circuits remain as users. ICM included free TurboDOS drivers with the board.

Unfortunately I do not have a manual for this interesting board. If you have one please let me know.
