I stumbled onto this site but could not find any more info. Anyone recognize it? I guess they have/had one at Disney Imagineering Research & Development.
They were in business in the 90's it looks like.

Intel Inside, eh? Sure must sport some fancy control electronics :P
Well it closely resembles Psyd's older La Pavoni, I think. Maybe just in looks, though. Who knows who makes the guts.

Armondo is Armando "AJ" Conti. I'm not sure if he's making espresso machines anymore. He used to supply *$ with parts. His other company is Basis Audio, which makes high-end turntables. I own one and sell them as well. Very high quality. If his espresso machines are made as well as his tables they would be quite good.
