I found an Altair 8800 yesterday in a computer
repair shop.
It has been upgraded with a 16 slot motherboard
and the MITS cards were replaced with a
Cromemco CPU and Cromemco 64k ram card.
Does the upgrade significantly hurt the value
of it? Or are the Cromemeco boards equally
valuable?
The owner will sell it for $500 and will throw
in some other non-MITS S-100 cards (Cromemco
TUART, Cromemco Quadart, Godbout 32k ram card,
etc.
I have a pretty good idea of what the Altair
8800 is worth in it's original configuration
but I am in the dark when it has been upgraded.
Does anyone know where I might find an original
Altair 8800 CPU card and 8 slot motherboard. I
have a MITS ram card.
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
Bob
