I did my first unboxing this morning. It’s a set of photos though, rather than a video.
This box and its contents have been underneath various houses for more than thee decades. Long ago it was going to be shipped and follow me to a 1 1/2 year assignment on the other side of the world. At the last minute a friend of mine said having it shipped through military channels was risky with respect to damage and theft, I ended up not shipping it. So after all this time being stored on bare dirt in under house crawlspaces, I thought it was time to take a peek inside. The thick corrugated cardboard box was devoured by termites and other critters. I was really surprised the contents still look new. I put this together from a kit looong ago.
I'm debating whether to plug it in and toggle in a simple program. I still have an 8080 op-code reference card from long ago!
