Howard Fullmer created a "beefier" power supply, and other peripherals,
for the Altair. Ed Roberts said that people selling aftermarket

I have an Altair with the power supply mod and a printed copy of the power
supply instructions. I don't think the printed instructions are original.
As a

Ahl's
"Saga of a System" mentions both the PS mod and the clock mod
I really appreciate it!

Hi,
I'm looking for information about Westward graphics workstations,
especially for the 2019 (from about 1983) and the 2220 (about 1987).
