  5. Plan for tonight: Install MS-DOS on the #WeeCee to publish a post on Mastodon using #DOStodon. Might be overly ambitious though—let’s see what roadblocks I encounter.

  10. @dec_hl Also just watched this and was reminded that I have a #WeeCee in my collection which I never really set up. I hope I find some time to do that soon!

  20. And yes, also includes PC/104 (and I've also compiled support for that in as well) so I'd love to see people try this with anything they got at hand.

    You may be able to find some -based and boards, similar to the SBCs that @rasteri used for the (A -based Retro Mini PC) and (same concept but smaller and eith a more modern CPU) but those will be frightingly expensive.

    Not shure how well made cross-generation compatibility but consider getting a and see if you can choke it down in the UEFI/BIOS to match C3 performance...

  32. @flyingsaceur @polpo *nodds in agreement*

    Maybe @rasteri and @foone would be interested in taking a closer look at it.

    Considering they did somewhat work on the / 's sound solution based off / that could be in the realm of possibilities, tho both Wee86 & WeeCee do have an RTC and only need a battery hooked up to the correct pins to just work out of the box...

    This looks like someone looked at @rasteri's / and @violenceworks and thought:

    "How about making a - based based off new, off the shelf parts?"
