considering that the processor and eproms are missing. It looks
to me to be a 8080 based board. The 28 pin chip close to the
forty pin missing chip could be the 8228. The metal area to the
left was probably where a breadbaord strip used to be. There
are LEDs and a connector strip close to the breadboard area.
It looks like a electronics experimenter system actually. His
reference to the first laptop is pretty silly.
