SacState 8008 (c) 1973 California State University.
One of the first teams to build a complete system around the 8008 was Bill Pentz' team at California State University, Sacramento. The SacState 8008 was possibly the first true microcomputer, with a disk operating system built with IBM Basic assembly language in PROM all driving a color display, hard drive, keyboard, modem, audio/paper tape reader and printer.
- TRIVIA -
The project started in the spring of 1972 and with key help from Tektronix the system was fully functional a year later. Bill assisted Intel with the MCS-8 kit and provided key input to the Intel 8080 instruction set which helped make it useful for the industry and hobbyists.
