@kkarhan
Thanks!

I wanted to buy a #WeeCee at the time, but it was too much $$

But I bought a #Pocket386 when that came out, and it's great with FreeDOS! VGA output connected to my desktop monitor, I only needed to buy a PS/2 keyboard (I lost my old one several moves ago.)

Started tinkering with the #WeeCee and just learned about https://easy2boot.xyz/

Wow, what a weird-looking yet incredibly powerful utility!

Easy2Boot – The USB multiboot solution (legacy, UEFI, Secure Boot)

Plan for tonight: Install MS-DOS on the #WeeCee to publish a post on Mastodon using #DOStodon. Might be overly ambitious though—let’s see what roadblocks I encounter.

@dec_hl Also just watched this and was reminded that I have a #WeeCee in my collection which I never really set up. I hope I find some time to do that soon!
Heyheyhey! One of the #weeCee's that I made is now back up for sale: https://www.ebay.com/itm/404758970702 -- It's one of the earlier models, but tell your friends!
weeCee, retro DOS mini gaming PC, custom built, hand made, fully assembled | eBay

The weeCee is an open source PCB hobbyist electronics project utilizing the Vortex86DX based SOM304RD-VI, or SOM (system on module) – a modern 800 MHz 486-based mini-PC, tailor made for the ultimate DOS retro gaming experience.

And yes, #ISA also includes PC/104 (and I've also compiled support for that in as well) so I'd love to see people try this with anything they got at hand.

I wished I had @rasteri 's #WeeCee to test OS/1337 on....

Either way, I hope to longterm develop OS/1337 as a practical distro for lowest-end machines whilst still retaining features and keeping it smol.
Think of it like
@rasteri 's #WeeCee and #8bitGuy's #CommanderX16 having a one-night-stand and out comes a #distro that runs on decades old #IGEL #ThinClients just as nice as on recently discontinued #Wyse3040 or some classic #Netbooks like the famous #EeePC and #P11Z...

@polpo the only feature one may miss is #SoundBlaster 16 / #GameBlaster compatibility and maybe a #PC104 version and a header for a #Gameport...

Then it would be a perfect replacement for the discontinued #CS4237B that @rasteri used on the #Wee86 & #WeeCee...

@ActionRetro C3's are hard to come by...

You may be able to find some #C7-based #industrial and #embedded boards, similar to the SBCs that @rasteri used for the #Wee86 (A #PC104-based Retro Mini PC) and #WeeCee (same concept but smaller and eith a more modern CPU) but those will be frightingly expensive.

Not shure how well #VIA made cross-generation compatibility but consider getting a #ViaNano and see if you can choke it down in the UEFI/BIOS to match C3 performance...

@flyingsaceur @polpo *nodds in agreement*

Maybe @rasteri and @foone would be interested in taking a closer look at it.

Considering they did somewhat work on the #wee86 / #WeeCee's sound solution based off #PC104 / #ISA that could be in the realm of possibilities, tho both Wee86 & WeeCee do have an RTC and only need a battery hooked up to the correct pins to just work out of the box...
