I've been watching the Altair, IMSAI, and SOL-20
listings on
eBay lately, more out of curiosity to see what they go for than
anything else, but noticed something odd about a SOL-20 image. In
the listing, the picture definately showed a SOL-20, but instead of
the normal front panel showing 'SOL Terminal Computer' in both white
and yellow lettering, this machine has a single 'Interactive
Computer' in whie stylized 'computer font' across the front. Is this
an OEM version of the SOL-20 sold under another name?
The "name plate" is just a piece of paper behind clear
plexiglass, like the front panel of an IMSAI. Anybody
could resell it and put whatever they wanted to in the
space.
