Yeah, the posts regarding the 4500 & S-100 is the system I'm referring to - the guy doing the restoration has posted pics on the vcf forum about it. We're both trying to find docs for it, or even a sales brochure that talked about it. g. -- Proud owner of F-15C 80-0007 http://www.f15sim.com - The only one of its kind. http://www.diy-cockpits.org/coll - Go Collimated or Go Home.

Huge temporal disconnect. The smcc manual is from 1966... S100 was first seen as the MITS altair in late 1974.

well there is this total cool book and picture! http://www.smecc.org/digiac.htm we would love to find the system!

I'm trying to find out more information about a Digiac 4500 S-100 bus system that will eventually be coming my way. The machine was originally obtained through an estate sale and all the docs were thrown out. :( It appears to be some kind of computer system trainer, but information on the 'net is VERY scarce. In fact, the only time I've found "Digiac 4500" _anywhere_ is where it's listed as having software support in an ad for a robot arm.

Chasing Digiac...
I'm trying to find out more information about a Digiac 4500 S-100 bus system that will eventually be coming my way. The machine was originally obtained through an estate sale and all the docs were thrown out. :( It appears to be some kind of computer system trainer, but information on the 'net is VERY scarce. In fact, the only time I've found "Digiac 4500" _anywhere_ is where it's listed as having software support in an ad for a robot arm.
