 The SWTPC was my favorite computer. I had several - all gone now.
Somewhere I have a photo of 8 model 33's connected to a 6800 running timesharing which I wrote in machine language. I was demonstrating it at the Pittsburgh Area Computer Club, probably in the 70's or 80's.
If I can find that photo, I will post it.
I could write small programs in machine language right out of my head in those days. 6800 language was easy.

I also had a rack mounted 6800 on a modem. I received RTTY off the air from a repeater that was active back then, converted it to ASCII and dumped it into a circular buffer so anyone could read the last  thousand or so characters that had been transmitted.
