Hi Ted:

No, not in this case.  The ACE-10 and the ACE-25 (which Park has) are Intel DOS based systems.  Everything else including the ACE-Micro used DEC LSI-11 series processors.  Eary units were 11/23 cpu's and later "Turbo" units were 11/73 cpu's.  Operating system was RT-11.  Ampex never had their own operating system.

  AMPEX's ACE Disk Operating System, not MS-DOS
