Standard hardware/digital electronics course at University (esp.
Engineering School) usually involves construction of some sort of system.
For me, it was a Z80 computer. Sure, it was done with a breadboard rather
than a 'motherboard' but all the buses were wired by hand. I wouldn't call
it extraordinary and since I had to pull it all apart at the end of the
course it wasn't particular satisfying either - but it sure took a lot of
time.
