   Altair   
      
   Altair-Duino 8800 https://adwaterandstir.com/altair/ (Very nice replica    
   for these days... uses arduino)   
      
   Altair 8800 Clone https://altairclone.com/ (replica of the original tech)   
      
   Altair 8800c Clone https://deramp.com/altair_8800c.html (another great    
   replica that uses the original tech)   
      
   ===   
      
   KenBak-1 Replica https://adwaterandstir.com/kenbak/   
      
   ===   
   DEC PDPs (uses raspberry pi)   
      
   PDP-8 https://obsolescence.wixsite.com/obsolescence/pidp-8   
   PDP-11 https://obsolescence.wixsite.com/obsolescence/pidp-11   
      
   The creator is working on a PDP-10 replica now.   
   ===   
      
   IMSAI 8080 https://thehighnibble.com/imsai8080/ (replica that uses esp32)   
      
   ===   
      
   Digirule2u https://bradsprojects.com/digirule2/ pardon for this offtopic    
   but it's a small computer in a rule very related to old panel computers    
   (I ordered one but it's still on its way ...)   
      
   ===   
      
   Does any one know about other replicas?   
      
   Ministrel is a replica of ZX81 but it's not being produced for while.   
   http://www.tynemouthsoftware.co.uk/Shop   
      
     * BTW... I projected my own one replica of a ZX81 ant it's great...    
   maybe I'll sell as a kit someday...   
      
   -   
      
   Harlequin is a ZX Spectrum Replica http://www.zxdesign.info/harlequin.shtml   
      
   --------------------------   
      
   I've heard about some apple1 replicas... and I know that the guy from    
   altairduino is creating his own version of an apple 1...   
      
   Please send more links about other old computer replicas :D ... but    
   don't consider FPGA solutions 'cos they are "easy" to develop and don't    
   provide the same fun...
