[comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware] Put together a minimal AT with 256K*8 SIMM's?

I have an old green monitor, I have 256K*8 SIMM's. 
Could I use this, buy an AT motherboard, floppy drive, power supply and run? 
Are there motherboards that include serial port, floppy drive controller and 
graphic controller? If there is, is it hard? I'm used with electronics but
don't have the equipment or the knowledge how to debug the hardware in an AT.

(My ultimate solution would be to exclude the floppy drive, and buy
a appletalk card instead, but then I don't have anywhere to put the
appletalk PC software and also I assume the AT will not boot from
the appleshare volume.)
