This is a very niche kind of cool. There's something purely fun about reviving old tech and it's not a simple feat.

I think it would be cool if you did a follow-up article on the "why" part — what inspired you about the KIM-1, why you thought it was interesting to revive, etc.

Well, the JOLT [1] predated the KIM-1 [2], I think. At least, I had a JOLT before I had a KIM-1.
