Looks like a labor of love.

But, given that the original uses RTL and core, what's the point of 
building one in LSTTL?  Why not use an FPGA?  It'd be no more or less 
authentic.  Or perhaps just write a simulator to run on your PeeCee?

What's remarkable about the original is the size (2 cu. ft.) and the 
modularity and serviceability.

Cheers,
Chuck
