There was a book published in the early to mid 80's sometime which went
into quite exact detail on designing and building an 8bit microcomputer, using
the Z80 I believe. Unfortunately, I don't recall the exact name, and my copy
of it was lost years ago. I believe it was something like "Building Your Own
Microcomputer" and I thought it was a fascinating book. Anyone else recall
this book?

Yes, I believe it was published by TAD Books although I don't remeber the
exact title, either. It was available at my local library. At the time I
read it, I think I estimated it would cost about $1,000 altogether to
build the computer. It would probably be a lot cheaper today. Seemed
like a very good boook.
