Why 8008 is special

It was commissioned for a terminal, delivered late, and rejected by the customer who had ordered it. Intel sold it anyway, and its instruction set became the direct ancestor of the 8080 and then the x86 architecture.

Technology & computing

  • The 8008 was built to specification for a terminal maker who had moved on by the time it arrived. Intel sold the rejected design on the open market, and the x86 architecture in most computers today descends from it.
