David,
I looked at your auction. What is this > "one RQM Systems Power-Start boot
loader board w/ 48 DIP switches"? I had two Altairs and one had the MITs autostart
board. It was a standard MITs EPROM board with one pre-programmed 1702 in it that
contained the same code that you normally had to toogle in by hand. IIRC the code was only
48 bytes or some such. No DIP switches on it though.

Hi David.
Why on Earth would you be selling your "pride and joy"?

Either because (1) it isn't, or (2) he's got another one. But, frankly,
it's like selling one of your children.
