Subject: Wanted- info on computer kits
Newsgroups: net.wanted net.micro
I am considering building my own terminal and
would like to know what others experiences have been before
running out and buying a kit. Ideally it should be
something that can be expanded upon but which is of
reasonable cost. Some other basic questions:
- Do the more popular companies such as IBM and Apple
carry kits?
- What percentage of the cost would be saved over
buying the terminal outright?
- Are the assembly manuals easy to read?
- What types of stores carry kits and what are their names?
- What about compilers and software?
It also would be nice if it had at least 16K
to work with. Please send comments/gripes/etc.
directly to me by mail (i.e., do not post on the net).
Thanks!
