I did a similar thing with a 6502 and the Propeller microcontroller. I always meant to make an 8086 or 8088 version, but moved on to other things before ever doing so.
Dangerous Prototypes wrote up a pretty good post about it:

- redundantly 4y agoThe Parallax page they link to is gone, archive.org doesn't have any of the pictures/videos of it. Do you happen to still have this information somewhere?
- phaedrus 4y agoThere's more pictures and info on my old blog: http://dennisferron.blogspot.com/2008/12/prop6502-laptop-project.html http://dennisferron.blogspot.com/2008/12/prop6502-laptop-pro... Looks like Parallax still has a link to their old site, but I couldn't find the contest pages there, either. https://www1.parallax.com/ https://www1.parallax.com/ I'm pretty sure the code I wrote for it ended up on the Propeller object exchange, but that site also is gone... It probably lives on in the migration to a github repo, but it isn't so easy to search by author AFAICT. http://obex.parallax.com/ http://obex.parallax.com/ My picture (along with the other design contest winners and honorable mentions) was on the back of the May 2009 Nuts and Volts magazine, but I just checked my copy and there's no article inside, just the blurb on the back cover.
