RE: the Sol on eBay ... Yeah, the guy apparently knows little about what he is selling. He attributes its name to "Solomon Libes - an editor at Popular Electronics," rather than Les Solomon. Even the quickest search on the web would have turned up more accurate info than what he presents. Given the bidding is up to $1400+, I may start considering a trade for an Altair for one of mine!
