many of the cards inside it arom from an Altair if my
memory is correct...
A VDM -1? i think thats whats its called...anyway in the manual for this
VDM-1 is a Processor Technology board.
video card it has the source code for the programmng
code for a Altair and
IMSAl mechines....
only around 30,000 of these fine mechines where ever built so i would say
that they are very rare these days....
Let's not throw around the word "rare" so easily. 30,000 is a lot of
machines. Many people on this list have one or more Horizons (I have two
myself). They are uncommon for sure, but I wouldn't consider them "very
rare". Over time they will become "rare", but as of now they don't
yet
qualify.
