This is an interview with Steve Smith from Nashville, TN. In May, I drove my Nissan mini-van from the Atlanta, GA area to his home and picked up a MITS 300/55 Business System. That is, an Altair, with hard disk system, all built into a desk.

Steve had found my little ad on craigslist, asking for anyone to contact me about really old computers, and he offered it to me.

Hear his interesting story of acquiring and programming this fascinating computer for the South Central Bell company.
