Actually My comments were narrowly aimed. the IMSAI
was a far better
example of S100 and worth copying. Only ONE change I'd do... NO MAINS
POWER ON THE FP! Back when I'd seen one altair and a IMSAI fried by
someone comming in contact with that. It had no business there.
You know, 20 years after I first put an IMSAI together I still reach in
them today to wiggle around the front panel and YIKES!!. I just never,
ever learn!
I never fried any hardware due to the 120VAC, just me. (Once a screwdriver
ended up in the wall.)
