I'm usually an inflatable fox, but sometimes I can be a tiger, cat or an otter.

You have any AT style cases? I am also in need of PATA drives, but seems like your collection has turned to rust.

we're not looking for lifetime updates. We are looking for "these are the features that shipped, if there's bugs, they'll get fixed. if there's any new major features, then we would need to pay for them"

I will gladly pay for software that will give me updates and has perpetual licensing. I am sick of paying thousands for garbage that offers no value other than being the only game in town.

not sure if you have one of the SNES mice, but I do, so willing to test out for you.

distros have to be the gatekeepers, otherwise without them, the market will be flooded with anyone’s garbage that may or may not work for that distro. It keepa developers accountable, and in some cases honest (if there’s proper review processes in place)

do you have any means to add stability to the opposite corner from the original TO-220s? Things might get a bit wobbly plugging the power in and out if there's no way to support that. Otherwise I'd say it's pretty solid.
I do love the use of a rectifier on the DC jack ... the intent to ensure that you have a wide-compatibility range with both center-positive and center-negative supplies?

the key to soldering SMD by hand. LOTS OF FLUX.

are you building GTK? If so use their bultin browser??

where specifically?

i am tempted to start collecting software that way. The boxes take up so much space and the cost is so much more compared to just a case.

Can't be this one then ...

As he uses a Faraday FE2010 SPLD to implement the glue and majority of the support chips.

I actually have all the components without the need for a SPLD/CPLD/FPGA :fox_x3:
1x 8086-2 (8Mhz)
1x 8088-1 (10Mhz)
1x 80C86-10 (10Mhz)
1x 80C88-2 (8Mhz)
1x 80186
1x 82C11 (Printer iface)
2x 82C50 (UART)
2x 82C51 (Prog. comm iface)
2x 82C54 (10Mhz Prog. interval timer)
2x 82C55 (Prog. perph. iface)
2x 82C57 (Prog. DMA)
2x 82C59 (Prog. interrupt)
1x 82C84 (Clock gen)
1x 82C88 (Bus controller)
Just need to get an 8087 and an 80C87.
I've got SRAM and Flash ROM coming out every orifice, along with almost every 74HC chip available. Using modern SRAM would easily cut down on chip count, making it doable to recreate the 5150.

I am definitely there with you on the 5150. Such an iconic computer. My first PC was a 5150 clone with an orange phosphorus screen. I miss it a lot.
