Congrats!

Something you should probably do is take the lid off and record the
number from the sticker on the boot ROM.  Long ago, when I got Kaypro
disks directly from Don Maslin, he needed that number from me to know
exactly what disk to send me.  My experience with CP/M and Kaypros is
rather superficial so I can't say what's different from model to model
or version to version, but I can report that knowing your exact
machine configuration seems to be important.
