Hi
The SIM-4 on page 8 is mine. Doug C. took the picture.
I payed less than $50 for the system at a surplus place.
I still use it occationally to read or program 1702A's.

Anyone know what other than the Intellec
mentioned in the article that the 4004 was used in? Anything significant, early routers?
other functions. That would push up the value if it was more significant in its use to
advance Intel or the industry.
ISTR a few very early drum machines and synths used 4004 as a sequencer. I'm not
finding anything on Google to back that up, though, which leads me to wonder if maybe I
dreamed it up.
Here's a nice (if annoyingly multi-page) article on various uses of the 4004 over the
years, including pinball machines.
