Britton Lee (the last time I was there) is in Los Gatos, CA.  They build
a database machine which supports large SMD type disks, a micro (Z8000) to
perform the query processing, an accelerator made of ECL to make things
go fast, and various sorts of interfaces (RS-232 and IEEE-488 at least).

I had experience with very early models (1981), Serial No. ~25 or so.  They
were okay but had some bugs in the communications and were missing
various important things like a way to back up large databases.
