Hey guys! It's been about 9 years since I last logged in, but a few months ago I found a CC with a battery damaged logicboard at the transfer station. With nothing gained and nothing lost, as well as a performa 636cd, I decided to try to make a takky and it worked! That got me googling all sorts of mac witchcraft, catching up on the hobby. I saw the page on the replica SE board thread, and it reminded me of this effort from 1986

Many moons ago (possibly pre-crash)I posted a thread pondering the existence of any MacColbys, it turned out there were some!
I wonder if any of the unitron clones survived, or perhaps any of the engineers and students that worked on the project?
Update: I found this apparent sighting in 2004

Somewhere around 500 were sold, surely there's more than one left to examine
