My first personal computer, 1979, built from a kit.

S-100 bus, 48KB RAM, 2MHz 8-bit Z-80, paper tape and 8-inch floppy. Running MPM, 4-user system.



My current system has morphed over the nine years I've had it, but it's based on a 1999 vintage dual Celeron ABIT. Time for another upgrade.

Nothing interesting there now. Just a couple of inexpensive laptops.
However at one time I had an Alpha 21164 PC running Linux and Windows. Pretty cool at the time. I worked for DEC at the time and we were able to get some boards designed for aftermarket and a couple of processors. After buying the components necessary to build the machine including the special memory required there was not much savings but the machines were fast for the time. No pictures unfortunately.

We called the processor the Frankenstein chip because it had a couple of bolts sticking out of the case to attach the heat sink to.
