I suppose you could design a Homebrew SAM Coupe with only a handful of components ?
Z80 CPU (possibly Z84C0010PEC 10MHz) 512K SRAM EPROM EPM9320 Glue Logic, Video logic, Memory decoding etc MB8877+WD9216 FDCs ?? These may be compatible with original SAM Disk Drives ? 8255 PIO for IDE interface (Hard Drive or CF Card ) There wasn't a lot of ICs in the original anyhow !
