Yep Al - I have a Microbee and its predecessor - the Z-80 based S-100 bus system from Applied Technology in Lindfield. This bus structure was used most famously by both Altair and Imsai as the underpinning of the first real home computers running CP/M and MP/M. I built mine up from component level - piece by piece around 1981. Great fun!
