Do a search on "intersil 6100 kit".

It shows that Intersil did offer a 6100 board, but a glance shows no front 
panel.  I think it was called a "6960 sampler".

But also, there was a "PCM-12", from PCM, that offered a complete 
computer, I didn't notice if it was a kit or assembled, and it has a front 
panel, and that's probably what I remember reading about back then.
