Check out this month's Micro/System Journal, p74. The article is "Building an IBM-PC or XT Clone". The author covers the topic pretty well including price breakdowns, PC compatible vendors and also, what to do about IBM's copyrighted BASIC ROM. The editor of M/SJ actually put together his own PC clone following the instructions in the article. It works! Don Libes {seismo,umcp-cs}!nbs-amrf!libes
