There is/was an IEEE standard for the S-100 bus; why not hew to that,
regarding supply voltages?
If I were designing new "retro" boards today, however, I'd go with
one of the switching regulators that can be had in TO-220 packages.
Basically the same appearance as the veneered and generated 7805, but
far more efficient.
