You need at least 2 select pins, as you've noted the PET uses multiple 
CS lines.  As well, the layout is markedly different from either the 
2364 or the 27XX pinout,  As well, I consider PHI2 to be another CS 
line, as I believe the ROM is only active on PHI2 high.

If you're willing to string wires and such, yes, that's workable, but I 
dislike making such assumptions on a design like this.  Even with the 
concession, you'd need to deal with PHI2 and a couple select lines, so 
dealing with all of them took no more effort.

Well, I'm happy to make a run of the design I have, and I am pretty sure 
I can offer the board sans EPROM for $10-$15, if that's of interest to 
enough folks.  I'd be willing to offer them even less if folks wanted 
them in lots of 5 or 10. (individual packaging is what mandates the 
price points)

or, the PCB design is GPL, so anyone can pick it up and run a batch.  
Powell Electronics offers the 24 pin header, and the rest are easy to 
source from digikey, farnell, mouser, etc.
