Hi All,
If anyone is interested in watching progess, I started to put together the Apple 1 clone. I started with just the bare board, no kit.
I've included pictures: http://apple1computer.blogspot.com/
So basically I'm scrounging for parts... so far so good with the exception of 2 components:
2519B - 40 bit static shift register
MR500 diodes (or A14F) [ Will NE125 work? ]
So if anyone knows of any equivalents/cross-reference for the above components, please post!
thanks!

My 1982 RCA Sk series cross reference lists the following info
MR500 - replacement SK9003/5800
A14F - replacement SK3051/156
SK9003/5800 is a Si Axial-Lead Rectifier rated at 3 Amp/50 Volts, DO-27 package. Forward voltage drop is 1 volt
SK3051/156 - has similar characteristics but is rated to 1000V
So it appears that you need a silicon diode rated to at least 3AMP and 50 volts that will work in a space on a PC intended for a DO-27 package.
