SWTPC 6800 – A great collection of that era
I had purchased a SWTPC 6800 that came complete with a 6809 set of boards as well as some prototyped boards. There are a number of duplicate boards but I’m putting pics up here to document it and to let other take a look. Note that I have scanned and uploaded most of the documentation I also received with this computer collection and they can be found in the “Files Area”.
This is the system and the boards that were found in the system when it arrived. It was in a 6809 configuration:
