I finally got around to uploading pictures from my Altair 8800 build onto my SDF user gallery! I hope everyone enjoys them!
@jebug29 I think I might watch Wargames tonight in honour of your awesome machine
@jebug29 That is awesome! Great pics!
@xmanmonk Thanks ^ o ^ )/
I can't wait until someone (eventually) makes a reproduction Tarbell card. I'm gonna load so much software from cassettes.
@jebug29 OMG J! You have NO idea how much I drooled over one of those when I was like 12! Wow.
@gemlog I'm STILL drooling over mine and it's been about 4 months since I built it.
I have a parts list available on Google Drive with everything I bought to build it. I think there's a couple of mistakes I made when I ordered some stuff (iirc I didn't buy the right female molex connector or pins or something for the backplane power), but 99.5% of it should be there.

@gemlog Also Jerry Walker sells a more authentic backplane recreation on his website than the one I bought and used, although it's more expensive. He also sells bare 16K and 64K RAM cards
@jebug29 😍 a thing of beauty
