Just finished repairing and testing this one. It came to me totally unexpanded: only two S-100 slots, containing the 8080 CPU board and MITS 1K static RAM board! I didn't want to solder in any other slots, since it's pretty uncommon to find them unexpanded, so I wire wrapped a multifunction board with 32K RAM, 2K ROM, and a 6850 ACIA that's set up to be compatible with the MITS 88-2SIO board's first port. So, even with just two slots, you can load and run BASIC!
As with basically every other Altair 8800, the front panel needed to be completely rewired.
