I thought it must be something like that. Perhaps MITS was afraid the kit
builders would botch the job and they didn't want to have their name on
them. FWIW I have the highest known SN Altair (per Stephen Gabaly) so it
wasn't just the early kits.
I am assuming you are talking about the "MITS" label on the front of the
machine. One of my Altairs was built from a kit by a friend of mine, and it
does have the label on it (as do the other two that I don't know the history
on.) That picture on eBay was the first one I had seen without a label on
the front of it.
