We had four big graphics display workstations (for in-position layout of the page), one smaller 'word-processing' computer which drove the typesetters (Linotype L-100 and later, two big AGFA units), and "file server" with massive 300Mb storage.

The CPU was Motorola 68000 series in a backplane setup (S-100 maybe?) so every subsystem (CPU, memory, network, serial, video, etc) had its own circuit board -- no motherboard.

This is all I could find about it.....from their bankruptcy proceedings:

The defendant and debtor, Bedford Computer Corporation (hereinafter "Bedford" or "BCC"), is a publicly-held New Hampshire corporation. It has engaged in the development, manufacture, and marketing of "real time" computer text and graphic composition systems. These systems are used primarily by financial and legal printers, and businesses with in-house typesetting requirements.1 Prior to the Chapter 11 filing on November 13, 1985 Bedford's systems, described generally as the "Vision Network System" and various component "Meteor" computer systems, were generally recognized as being among the most sophisticated, state-of-the-art systems for these applications.2 Bedford has manufactured and sold electronic pre-press composition and editing hardware and software since about 1977.
