Hi Joe,

I have several leads on people with S-100 boards so if you are looking for
something specific, let me know. Can't promise anything except that I will
check around. I would think that most, if not all, S-100 stuff would work
in the Altair. It is possible that compatability with the actual MITS
boards could be a problem though; Allison, Jim or a few others could
probably say more about board compatibility. The Intel Development System I
have hasn't even been fired up (my me!) yet as I acquired it only to add to
the collection.

 Idea - Something that might be really interesting at the next VCF is to
have a number of operating tools for people to see what was used and how it
was used to develop hardware and software for the early microcomputer
systems.
