Did you know the oldest public access Unix system M-NET / arbornet.org are now maintained by SDF.ORG?

M-NET currently enjoys preservation thanks to Dan Cross here under FreeBSD but the ALTOS still exists

I noticed a price tag on this Apple IIc box: December 18, 1987, $949.00

IMHO, that is pricey for a computer that came out in 1984! This was just for the computer, no monitor or mouse.

Bruce and Jeff have made progress on the MITS Altair 8800. It’s doing deposits and examines now with some success.
