It's a glorified calculator in its native form. However as it went along cards that you could put in the thing allowed you to hook it up to a monitor, keyboard, and other I/O devices. Then turning it into a real computer. However, even with those things attached, you had to play with the switches in the front before it would recognize them. Basically coding your own drivers.

I learned how to solder, helping my dad put the thing together in 1975, I was 5. I think it came with 2k and could be expanded to 4k. It was programmed in binary. When he got a SOL, we lost interest in the Altair, eventually moved onto a TRS-80, Apple II, and you know the rest. The Altair was stolen by the Mexican government when my father brought it down there to start a computer museum in about 1994. All the early computers never came back from customs.

It's so AMAZING when I think how MUCH Bill Gates and Steve Jobs/Woz changed the human race. It's almost mind-boggling; insane!
Forever changed; transformed into the Information Age.
