My first computer was a home brew based on the S-100 bus. The pc boards
were in kit form.
This was a Z80 system with 64K of ram and two 8 inch floppies. Each floppy
would hold 128k. The operating system was CP/M.
Back then, you could say you were the only one in the neighborhood that had
a computer.
