Altair 8800 simulator

Emulator v19-Dec-2016

Altair 8800 Simulator is a dedicated emulator for the Altair 8800 microcomputer, a pioneering system in microcomputing that emerged in the 1970s. Designed to replicate its hardware and software architecture, it allows exploring a key historical environment in the evolution of personal computers.

Developed for macOS on Intel processors, this software appears to be no longer actively maintained since its last update in December 2016. Its operation relies on a faithful simulation of the original components, but the lack of recent maintenance limits its accessibility on newer macOS versions, particularly those compatible with Apple Silicon. Use with caution due to compatibility and support issues.
