The IMSAI 8080 Microcomputer was released in 1975. It was based on the Intel 8080 microprocessor, and later, the 8086 Microprocessor and the S-100 bus. This was an improvement on Altair's original design, which used an IBM-looking user-friendly front panel. The Maximum Memory was 64 Kbytes.

MicroComputer Data Processing company was founded in 1980 by George A Mitchell, https://www.linkedin.com/in/georgealponsomitchell/, DBA MCDPINC, in Lawndale California, and was registered as a Delaware S-Corporation in 1996.
MicroComputer Data Processing (MCDP) started out providing data processing services for the small business community using an Imsai 8080 pictured here but with the Imsai 8080 label replaced by our company name. The system consisted of:
The system ran on CP/M Operating System with CBasic Language Interpreter and a small library of business software.

MicroComputer Data Processing (MCDP) evolved to provide other services as needed by the small business community including :
From 1980 to 2000, George worked for several of the leading computer hardware manufacturing companies and computer business systems manufacturing companies.
Over the past 20 years, MicroComputer Data Processing (MCDP) Inc., has evolved further to provide safety-critical systems support to the avionics, medical, transportation, and other safety-critical industries. Our clients now are larger corporations who are leaders in their respective safety-critical fields.
MCDP Inc. is now located in Palm Bay, Florida 32905, and available to serve you.
