    I wish they'd make one of these with the Vortex86EX SOM-128-EX inside it. It'd be like a modern Toshiba Libretto 110.

    nice. 8MB RAM is a lot for a 386. Something with a math coprocessor would have been better. Also there is no info about the configuration (IBM compatible BIOS, PIC )

    Honestly, I think one of these with an esp32 could be a true revival of personal computing, old style.

    Like a Lilygo t-deck but with a laptop form factor to make it practical to program on-device.

    Keyboard will make or break this for usability
