IMSAI project
by vbriel on Jul.31, 2012, under News
We’ve been a little busy around here and things are going to get a lot busier in the near future. We have been in Talks with Thomas “Todd” Fischer to acquire the IP and remaining inventory of IMSAI. With this pending purchase we will be able to roll out new IMSAI series 2 machines in the near future. There is still some work to do but a tentative agreement has been reached.
In order to raise the capitol required for the purchase we will do a Kickstarter project that will ask for a donation to help “Save IMSAI”. If you have ever wanted to be a part of something big, this is your chance. We are working out rewards for donations but even $5 or $20 will help. I’m doing something I don’t like to do and that is to ask for help to save IMSAI. Together we can reboot IMSAI and make something incredible. Please wait until the Kickstarter project is up before making a donation. It is really an exciting time here.

Hi ! I’m new here but definitively interested by the IMSAI project (for reasons from personal history I’m not a fan a the Apple computer, more an Altair and IMSAI one) !!!

Never got to buy an IMSAI back in the ’70s but sure would like to buy one now whose components are not at their EndOfLife. Please keep the scores (if not hundreds or thousands) of us aging computer freaks up to date on and how we can invest in your most worthy project…
