Everyone lost the metal strip! It's sandwiched in between the trim of the outer case
and the dress panel. Some folks stuck it to the dress panel with glue, double-sided tape,
etc. Those are usually the machines which still have the metal strip.
Thanks,

I see some altairs have a metal escutcheon on the bottom with the stylized words
"MITS ALTAIR 8800 COMPUTER" whereas others, the front panel is just the dark
faceplate top to bottom. What is the difference? Would one have been a kit and the other
sold fully assembled? Or maybe later units vs earlier units?
