Ahhh... That brings back memories. While I never had a Kim-1, I did spend hundreds of hours typing in hex on a Kim-2. Of course once you finished spending 3 or 4 hours typing in a program, you would play it for 20 or 30 minutes, and decide that another program looked more interesting, so you would shut it off and start typing again.
I didn't have one of those fancy smancy permenent storage devices. :-o
