Has been done - While on military service I had an Apple II,
while two Sergants, also interested into Computers didn't have
the money (I took a bank loan) - so we did clone it - our
first attempt has been a completly hand wired pice on one
board (took just all evenings and weekends for more than
half a year until it was running faultfree), while for the
second was build as Eurocard modules, also hand wired but
way easyer to build - afer that we tried a real clone :)
Gee - 1979/1980 was a great time - it is always preferabel,
if you are a First Private, and your Sergants _need_ you for
their (want-to-have)Computers :)

Gruss
H.
