My particular interest is in the intellec 4 mod 40 (I've rebuilt the one I used in college, 1975-1977) but I don't have the original software, supplied on paper tape. I've also been in contact with other owners and people interested in making replicas of the intellec 8 and mod 80 systems, and there's a lack of info on the the ROM monitors. Given the historical significance of these fine machines (and my personal annoyance at the lack of foresight I had as a callow postgraduate regarding hanging on to copies of paper tape) I'd like to put a shout out to see if any of this information/software is available in a historical nook or cranny somewhere in the computing world and try to gather it together to help complete systems and share the techniques used when 4K of RAM was a really big, expensive and rather hot deal....
