Sorry, I didn’t ask on this one. It looked like a well used/loved machine with some wear and customizations to the front panel Jerry > On May 22, 2016, at 9:51 AM, Bill Sudbrink wrote: > > Jerry Weiss wrote: >> I saw one Altair 8800 > > I haven't seen an Altair at a hamfest in this century. > Out of curiosity, what was the seller asking? > > Bill S. > >

Re: Hamvention
I picked up one of those power systems, the other was gone before I got to it. The only things I can add are an amiga and tons of cisco network gear. Not a whole lot this year I suppose.

Re: Hamvention
I saw one Altair 8800 and one TRS-80 III out in the swap fest. Some more recent power (5?) series, but that’s about it.
