ITYM Cromemco. The IMSAI was a clone of the Altair. If you want to think of one as the "Grandfather", it would be the Altair. Or what about the Mark-8? Based upon an Intel 8008, the design was published in Radio Electronics. I knew someone who built one. That would have been about 42 years ago. -- Tom Marchant ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
