Default Pseudo replicas

Most of the replicas mentioned are really pseudo replicas as they replicate original features with modern parts in more compact and simpler configurations. None of them can truly compete with Grant's work as being (almost) true replicas, although Vince Briel's Apple I and Micro-KIM boards come very close.

I'd love to have a real pdp-11/70 machine, but I can't afford the space or the electricity for a two rack, 240 VAC current sucking monster. So a small, single board pseudo replica would be acceptable if it had the same front panel and the same functionality.
