    Shows how to load a bootloader, run the bootloader, boot MITS 8k BASIC, load a craps game and run it on a MITS Altair 8800 microcomputer.

    The Altair is arguably the first hobbyist / personal computer and it spawned a little company named Micro-Soft.

    Don't get me wrong, I love old computers and that one is no exception. But I just can't figure out how that could be useful for anything.

    im a professional electronic engineer and i have made a small computer like this. sitches on 8 databus and 16 address bus. 64 kb ram and UART to communicate with a terminal programm. i wish i had the money, i would build another one but a bit better. 8bit comuters rule!

    I had a Teletype ASR-33, which had a paper tape reader in it (hence the A, meaning Automatic). It was a very simple device, BASIC came wrapped in paper tape format, which looks like adding machine paper, except a bit thicker, and it has holes punched in it. Each row represented a complete byte. I would load the tape into the teletype, key in the loader, run the loader, and start the paper tape loader. It would blindly copy the bits out the RS-232 port. Took a few mins to load BASIC.

    Ok I don't have the best knowledge of computer science in the world, but it looks like he was putting binary inputs onto the left side of the machine but it only had 6 switches I would have thought it would need 8. And what were the input/options for the basic interpreter back then?
