Mmmm... yes. Is it just me or has there been a big resurgance of
solder-it-yourself kits lately?

I'm most impressed with that kit, doubly so that it seems to have the
backing of MITS. If more people can start to learn how 'proper' computers
work then the more new kits the better. Next: resurgence of the RadioShack
300-in-1 electronics kits :)

The outside looks very cool and pretty accurate, though I'm not
entirely sure if the number of connector punchouts on the rear panel
is correct.. But the solder-masked boards are wrong, at least for
the vintage Altair that I own(no masking, just tinned traces). OTOH,
the crappy stranded white wire to connect the CPU board to the front
panel is a nice "authentic" touch. I envied the guys with Imsai
boxes...
Cheers,

This cracked me up, quoting from the site:
"Your web page stinks!"
"Yeah, and it took me forever to toggle in all these characters! ; ) "

I was quite interested in this, but I can't afford these prices. The
first kit went for $1775. Item no. 250054310073.

Yeah - I note Todd Fischer had input to this product, so "good luck" ever
seeing it.
