Early 8-bit microprocessors with 74-series glue logic and mazes of wire on breadboards are an easy, fun way to get into building homebrew computers. Moving up to the 16-bit era is more certainly complex, but can still be accomplished with DIP parts on...
The basic plan is to use junkbox small signal silicon NPN transistors to implement level shifting from RS-232 to 5V TTL compatible. These may be of the type you buy by the bagful, if you pay more than 10 cents a pop for them, they're the wrong ones....
