Perhaps someday soon with FPGAs we will have any CPU we want, whenever we want. Could have fun there.

- pshirshov 4y agoIt's not just about CPUs, but also about peripherals and multiple quirks. I wonder who might have enough resources to re-implement a dos-era machine with modern components without any potential commercial applications. Simpler projects (e.g. Commanderx16) weren't successful so far.
