Odd Intel S-100 Cards

[wmmullaney]

Hey everyone,
I know it's been a while since I'v posted, but recently I got a rather large load of stuff from an elderly lady down the street (for free). Among a 286, TS1500, various 386s, I got a box with a bunch of old 5.25" floppy drives, and a homebuilt backplane. (I'll get pics later) Inside there were two different sets of slots, 5 S-100 form slots, and 2 44 pin slots (exactly the same as the apple one slot, cards fit in my replica.) 4 of the five cards on the 100 pin bus were intel branded:

1 I/O interface
2 8080 I CPU card
3 4kbyte SRAM card
4 PROM card

All are early 70s, pre 75. I would guess that they were s100, except for two problems:

A. They are taller than and s100 cards i'v ever seen
B. There are no voltage regulators on the cards, the chips *seem* to be getting power directly from the bus.

Do any of you know if these are s100, and what they are worth?

Thanks, Will

They're not S-100; they predate it. They're cards to an Intel MCS-8 Intellec 8 development system. If you're interested in selling them, I can put a post on the cctalk list for you. These are going to be of interest only to someone who already has an Intellec 8 development system.

The 8080 card was pretty much a retrofit for the MCS-8 system, which came out with an 8008 CPU. Later MDS systems were Multibus.

Thanks for the info, before listing them do you have any idea what they might be worth?

Thanks!

Not a clue--I don't collect old development systems. Maybe someone here does.

Ok, If you could, please post them on cctalk. Whenever you can is fine, thank you!

Done.
