RARE INTELLEC 4 MOD 40 WITH PAPER TAPE READER. The Intellec 4 was, along with the Intellec 8, one of the first American microcomputers. It used Intel's 4004 microprocessor chip. The Mod 40 came out a couple of years later and used the much faster, although still 4-bit 4040 chip. Though the Intellecs were offered to the public, they were created as microcomputer development systems and very few were produced.
