50 Years Later

Post by Wayne Parham »

This is an exciting week. It was 50 years ago this week - the week before Christmas in 1974 - when "Popular Electronics" issued its most popular issue of all time.

The reason for its popularity is that this is the issue that introduced the Altair 8800.

So true!

It seems like "a while back" but it doesn't seem that long ago!

I still fondly remember those magazines, Popular Electronics, Byte, and the processor-specific ones too. Wasn't so long ago!

Thanks for keeping it alive, Mike!
