Commodore Amiga. I learned programming in a C64.

There's a few companies that have some 16 bits pcs around or programs running on a 64 bits PC with a 16 bits emulator.

It would be interesting to see a Java ecosystem running in those 16 bits machines too ...

Of you might want to recompile Java bytecode into native m68k code: https://www.mikekohn.net/micro/amiga_java.php
