Evan;
Yes - I think it was the Heath Z-100? It was a good machine.

>>The S-100 was a bus architecture, not a computer itself. IMSAI's computer was simply known as the 8080. MITS' computer was the Altair 8800.

>>Many other computer manufacturers adopted the S-100 bus and I'd hazard an educated guess that most CP/M and TurboDOS systems ran on S-100 bug computers.

>>>Yes - and that became the S-100. My confusion was that Altair was in New Mexico - I read an article that said Hayward, CA, where we lived at one time. IMSAI (the S-100 I owned) was in San Leandro, near Hayward. They will have to make some corrections at the San Jose Technical Museum as to the history of all this. :)
