Hello folks,
I was (finally) lucky enough to acquire an Altair 680 back in November, and I have been
able to get it back up and running, too.
Now that I have a fully working stock Altair 680, I am interested in acquiring expansion
boards for it. If anyone has any Altair 680 expansion boards, especially a memory
expansion board, that they are willing to part with, please let me know.
Thanks for listening.

Is there any logic to the naming of
these Altairs? Wonder why it wasn't
"Altair 8080" and "Altair 6800". 8800
and 680 don't follow the same pattern.

Had MITS made other Altairs...
Altair 8800 = 8080
8850 = 8085
8860 = 8086
8880 = 8088
8286 = 80286
8386 = 80386
680 = 6800
680 = 6809
680 = 68000
