Of course, you don't have to tear anything apart--you can
just hook together fully assembled machines.

I built the AppleCrate because 1) I already had lots of
bare //e boards, and 2) it solved a physical space problem
to get 8 machines into a cubic foot.

You can stack complete machines if you like.  ;-)

The only adaptation relative to AppleCrate is the method
of booting--you would need to load a short (1K) chunk of
code to get them to boot.  (But if you have a disk drive
attached, you'd probably use that to boot.)

I found it handy to change the ROM on the 'Crate machines.
