i've been thinking about how to build a retro-style computer without any of the engineering compromises that made old machines so weird. lots of ideas, no progress. perhaps some sort of small riscv machine and a separate processor to m

someone suggested 10-bit bytes. this will not be enough. 11-bit bytes should be plenty, though

i thought it was interesting. sometimes you have a part of an idea and you don't know where you really wanted to go until you started. fwiw i think a lot about older computers being much more simplistic and easier to understand than mo
