History of Heath...when computers came on...

[Guy G. Giacopuzzi DDS]

I was at the Los Angeles store when the first H8 arrived.  That would be
late 1976.  The interest in the machine was incredible, and we had quite
a few on a "waiting list"  who wanted to be contacted when it arrived.
This was, as Pensen has said, a "geek" machine, in that there was no
monitor, just some LED's and a keypad.  As far as I  knew, that was the
main way of communicating with the microprocessor....and the only way,
till the peripherals started arriving...tape drives, paper punch
machines, and the like...
