Mr. Solomon started talking to Mr. Roberts and Mr. Yates about the Altair project. What
could and could not be done given budget, availability of parts, complexity of
construction, etc. What the potential market would look like. And, maybe most importantly,
the promotion of the project in Popular Electronics.

Thanks for bringing this up.
Is this half a century from when they said, "Hey, you know what would be
neat to build?"
or from when they started designing?
or got a preliminary design done?
built a prototype?
announced it?
started taking orders?
started filling orders?
