Two PhD students at a physics department wanted a computer on their own, and started to build a PDP-8 clone, based on what was available in the 1970. The system is built based on the Intersil IM6100 CPU. They had access to documentation via university. Everything is built by themselfes, beginning with the board layout, exposition, etching and soldering. They have extensive documentation on their work. There exist exactly two of those systems worldwide. Both still working.

At present it looks like a candidate for Retr0bright - although as this wasn't a Platinum case I'm actually not sure how noticeable the effects would be.

And here it is, the new Amiga, or the A1-X1000. The hardware's supposedly really impressive; when it's out, it'll cost £1500-2000. One for the true fans, then.
