OK. So I meant to say 8088 because the IBM PC 5150 had an 8088 chip and it
is the 40th anniversary. I didn't want to restrict the theme to just the
anniversary of the IBM PC, Vic-20, etc. I wanted to keep it generalized
enough for more diverse exhibits, yet still allow for people to do
anniversary themes.
I chose the 4004 chip because of the 50th anniversary of that chip.
