Hex keypad!!! We used to *dream* of having a hex keypad and seven-segment displays!

My Altair (still in the attic) had toggle switches and LEDs; if you were very lucky you could key in the Teletype KSR interface in about 5 minutes, then you could load programs from paper tape into the 1K of memory.
