“Great podcast as usual. In the early 80s I lived in Columbia MD, home of Columbia data products. We used to get motherboards from their dumpster. They were one of the super early clones made right in MD. My first clone was bought at the Howard county Ham Fest in 1982. It was a turbo XT clone with 512 mb ram, 2 half height floppies, a composite video card and a orange screen composite monitor. I think I paid 499 at the time. It’s was very lose those days. Many if the cheap clone hardware was coming straight from the orient without documentation. Many of the dealers were straight off the boat and spoke little English. You brought back so many memories.”
