Anyone remember the Altos computer?
 
IIRC that was it's name.

Yep, that was its name!  Gee, talk about brain pain!  Next you'll be talking about the Pet, the Sinclair or the Heathkit!

I had a Sinclair. My then (un-technical) mother-in-law in the 80s gave me juan.

The one with 1k of memory?  (Both it and the Pet were the ones I remembered for coming out with only 1k of RAM - This was obviously way before Alan Parsons made his statement, ya?)

I had a Sinclair.  and we upgraded the memory with a memory pack (It was a little larger than a pack of cigarettes, IIRC) to 16k!  I could finally write programs that didn't require constant loading from the cassette player!
