Even if its an ND-100 Satellite, it seems it uses the same chassis as the ND-110 Satellite.
In this case its the Model 14 chassis.

A ND-100 Satellite model 14 machine in RHansen's collection,

Hardware

Hardware in the machine is described in this section.

PCB Cards in the Satellite

Even if its an ND-100 Satellite, it seems it uses the same chassis as the ND-110 Satellite. In this case its the Model 14 chassis.
