Kim-1
« on: September 12, 2009, 08:58:34 PM »
Hi

Not very Amiga I know.. save that it was a Commodore product. Anyway, I am sure that you all know about my website and my dedication to the Amiga.. well Haven`t been that active of late given that I have a serious storage problem. However I have updated the site to include the new addition, the KIM-1 plus I added a new scuzzblog.

May be of interest to some.

Holy crap! I thought I had a large collection, but this is mind boggling. You must have a lot of space. I've got less than 1/20 that and my computer room is so packed I nearly get killed in avalanches regularly. (I'm thinking of putting up avalanche warning signs.)

You've got a very nice website too.

The college where I went to school for Electrical Engineering used the Kim-1 as a training computer. We learned assembly, built interfaces (i designed my own SCSI interface as a project for this back in 1984) and power supplies. It was tons of fun and a great way to learn. Man, I really knew assembly back then.

Kinda funny seeing MOS logo with the Commodore logo!!

I guess MOS came before AmigaOS!  All the Blue where right!!!  ;-)
