I thought the 8008 was developed to go into a terminal. And then the
original *user* decided against using it so Intel started hawking it
as a micro-cpu. It must hav made it into SOMETHING that was not a
computer. Someone mentioned thr front panel of a DEC but it must
have been used in some terminals. Anybody know if and which?
As I remember the 4004 was actually Intels first micro-cpu and I don't
know of any commercial product that used them - but I don't know
everything. Any product types and names?

Oh, thank you for the suggestion BUT I have SEVEN TI99/4A(s). MYproblem
is the 4004 and the 8008 ! There's a UK company that used to advertise
in the UK version of the
Elektor 4-5 years ago. They advertised the TI9900, NS32032 and other
odd CPUs.
You could probably go buy a TI99/4a from a thrift store for a few bucks
and rip the TI9900 out of it and save a couple bucks off of what Elektor
probably sells them for.
