While the IMSAI 8080 will handle tough industrial and commercial assignments in sophisticated multiprocessor environ­ments, it's also an ideal low-cost machine for learning computer technology and programming. But in any application you'll have freedom and flexibility with IMSAI 8080.

Elementary System

The IMSAI I-8080-1K is a valuable in­structional tool for learning computer concepts and machine-language programming. You need only:

Computer

Memory

You write small yet powerful programs which are entered using front panel switches. Communication between machine and yourself is through the front panel switches and LED's.

BASIC Language System

This system lets you program the computer in the BASIC language which is widely used in educational and commer­cial applications. A wide range of inter­esting games may be played and useful problems solved in BASIC.

In this system the machine and you communicate using a Video Display! Keyboard Terminal or optional tele­typewriter. Order the following:

Assembly Language System with Punched Paper Tape

This system lets you program the com­puter in assembly language from punched paper tape, providing freedom and economy in developing programs. Machine/operator communications are through a teletypewriter equipped with a paper tape reader.

You can also use this configuration for programming when the BASIC lan­guage is on paper tape. Order the following:
