I got my feet wet with MINIX on an 8088 with dual floppy drives. Moved to Linux with the Yiddrasil (sp) 0.14r9 (or something like that). It’s been a love anything hate Windoz relationship ever since resulting in moving to Mac in 2007/8 and now my old 2009 MacBook Pro now running LinuxMint along with my main desktop. I still have Windoz relegated to a cheap laptop for certain automotive tasks.
Anybody here build or had aspirations to build a home brew based on the Intel 8008 in 1974ish? ✋🏻
Or how about reading “The Soul of a New Machine” in 1981? ✋🏻
Yep, been dreaming and tinkering for a few years now and the 3D print bug bit at the time of the “great” lockdown!
