Pat you got the right info on the Altair. 

I had to do a little surfing to catch up with the I8008 info but I
finally found 
this in a on-line History of Computers site.

The people at Intel made the price of the I8008 a joke, an in-house joke
about 
the IBM 360 mainframe computer.  They priced it at $360.
