There was definitely a single board beast with a 7 segment display, 
membrane keyboard etc, I spent many hours on it. (Albeit 40 years ago.)

I assume it was made by Intersil.

The one I'm looking for had a front panel, it was almost Pizza box style 
(flat rectangular box) but not square in plan view. Cream/White with a 
blue front.  I doubt it was a kit. Not impossible but it didn't have the
