Is that thing a clone or the real one, just with a clear case?

I prepared an article for Root.cz about Pocket 386 retro laptop (and running FreeDOS on it) I recently bought. The article is written in Czech (I am considering also English version, well... maybe). @freedosproject #pocket386 #freedos

What is a reliable seller of the #Pocket386 on AliExpress?
I would say the store that's linked from 8086cpu.com but they don't have it listed (anymore?)

My Pocket 386 arrived! (and no, 386 within its name is not just a coincidence) #freedos #pocket386

Pocket 386 is a mini laptop for retro computing with support for DOS and Windows 95
The Pocket 386 is a tiny laptop computer with a 7 inch display, a QWERTY keyboard, and a body that’s small enough that you might actually be able to fit it into a (large) pocket.
It’s also a device specifically designed for retro computing. The Pocket 386 gets its name from its 386 SX compatible processor, and the system should be […]https://liliputing.com/?p=169860

I got myself the Pocket386! It has a 386SX clocked at 44MHz (!), 8MB of RAM, a Cirrus Logic SVGA and an OPL3 AdLib.
What’s the best thing to play on it? (there’s no mouse)

It turns out the mouse setting disabled itself in BIOS... don't know the cause of FDC Failure yet but could be another BIOS option? #Pocket386

Dammit! My #Pocket386 stopped detecting the mouse (either keys or PS/2) and beeps when powered on (something about "FDC")
What chip do I need to resolder?

The answer (for me) was: format with FAT16, not FAT32. (MBR and a sub-2GB drive probably important too) #Pocket386 #retrocomputing

Anyone else with a Pocket 386 successfully use the USB port to connect a flash drive? Mine just sits there not reading it

Figured out the muffled line output on the #Pocket386. It's just the volume pots. The "volume control" really just seems to be a treble control or something. Turn it up to max and the output sounds pretty great. Maybe this CAN be an OPL3 jukebox...
(Of course, then if you turn the speaker amp back on with those settings, then the built in speakers are WAY too loud. Kinda sucks given that the pots are not readily accessible. Oh well... future external volume control or speaker mod?)
