Since the Dr V64 is so damn hard to find I figured maybe I could make a clone of it since I am familiar with 6502 based computers. Its basically an 80's computer.
Anyone have any good pictures of the boards for a Dr V64 that I could examine?
*edit* I think I found some, but more would be appreciated...

Current parts list as follows....
======================Ram Expension 256 (http://www.supermagi.com/pfs.php?m=view&v=1-doctor_v64_memory_v64e.jpg)====================
8 - Ram S4004SE1-DJ-GD (http://www.4starelectronics.com/part_detail/S4004SE1DJGD.html)(might have to buy 200...)
1 - 40 Pin IDE socket (x1)
?? - Resistors ???
======================Ram Expansion 128 (http://www.supermagi.com/pfs.php?m=view&v=1-doctor_v64_memory_v64d.jpg)====================
4 - Ram S4004SE1-DJ-GD (http://www.4starelectronics.com/part_detail/S4004SE1DJGD.html)(might have to buy 200...)
1 - 40 Pin IDE socket
?? - Resistors ???
=======================V64 Main Board (http://www.supermagi.com/pfs.php?m=view&v=1-doctor_v64_mobo_b.jpg)======================
1 - Motorola/MOS 6502 CPU (easily pulled from one of my commodore 64s)
2 - Female 40 pin IDE connector (for RAM slots)
1 - Generic 52x CD drive OR Hard Drive...
1 - DB 25 Female Socket
6 - RCA Jacks
1 - toggle swich (ntsc/pal selector)
1 - DC in Port (looks like they used an S-video plug)
*I need topside pics of the main board, as well as close ups of the ram.
================================================== ======
Yes I am serious about building one!
**edit**
I've found some more information on the V64.... it appears some chips are epoxied making them almost impossible to Identify. Nothing a little heatgun couldn't fix... :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kTPXKA66baQ
