No, by "building" I meant "assembling from existing parts", not 
"re-designing from scratch" - too bad I'm not a semiconductor company! 
But believe it, nowadays those old computers are well-sought vintage 
objects! You may find a 386 system announced for a cool 300 euros - very 
unlike the 1990s and early 2000s, when you even found them on piles of 
bulk trash!

See you in Khyberspace!
