onto an S100 board (PMOS-TTL level translation will add lots of parts).
I got it going, and then, I thought

I someone had told me around 1975 that these would become Valuable Collectibles
I would have laughed my ass off.
Maybe I should get around to doing something with those ceramic 1702s.
Probably equally "collectible" now.

I only recently got a KIM-1 (at VCF East). It's been on my list for a

Is Sheets free or do you have to have a paid google account? I just used it at

If you’re okay using a MS product that you can find cheap, Microsoft Access is
pretty good. Lotsa tutorials and works well for small databases. Only drawback
is it’s Windoze.

Yes, I remember those “nixies”. When you entered the building it was impossible
