Ahhhh, the good ol' Altair 8008... What a toy that was. Remember when the first 8080 boards came out for those things? and the 16k dynamic RAM boards that only cost about $1500. Oh, and then there was the day they came out with an actual 256 baud accoustic modem set up -internal- to the computer...except for the coupler, natch... And the first 24x80 video card with a whole 2k of actual static RAM. Those were the days..... Ghod, I wish I could find one of those again, just to sit on a desk and admire....
