What do you need help producing? It sounds like there are a lot of skilled people on the board, but I'll offer my abilities as well to such a cloning project. >Not easily, although with some custom adapters it could be done much MORE >easily.

The most important part first--the numbers on the four chips are 342-0651A through 342-0654-A. According to Gamba's site, these are SE/30 ROM chips. I didn't know which machine this was meant for until I found that information. On the circuit board is 820-0244-01 and ASSY 630-4344. Thank you for the answers.
