 AK> information.

 p> Nice reporting - I'm enjoying the 8800c website, thanks. 
 p> :P So are you going to put one together over time??? 
 p> Very neat projects.

I am trying SO HARD to not start buying Altair parts to put together!  I really better do something with my KIM-1 clone first, I keep falling further behind as the fun projects queue grows!!  The Altair 8800c certainly does look beautiful.

Another Altair-related treat - CBBS/TN at cbbs.mitsaltair.com:8800 is running CBBS (the original BBS software by Ward Christensen) in the AltairZ80 simulator.  I know you've logged in before, Paulie, just mentioning this here for anyone else interested.  It's neat to be able to login to a CBBS system, and I found it a lot more user-friendly than I had expected it to be.
