Yet another Altair 8800 PC

[xprt]

This guy built a small size Altair 8800 front panel and put it on an Altair 680 case with a Core i5 motherboard inside:

Looks nice.

I had looked at this awhile back. Maybe I misunderstood but the panel really has nothing to do with the operation of the computer and is driven, more or less, randomly?

Still, it looks good.

That panel is controlled via Altair32 program on the pc. So, the front panel is dependent on the software to function. When I finish the AltairPC (next on the plate) it will run independently, so you just run it, or have a PC installed. Nice work but that was a 680 MITS case at one time.
