@manawyrm @Nomaxice I've pointed out before there are technically consumer-level chips now where you could install and run windows 95 into a CACHEDRIVE, with no RAM or HD needed.

@Foone @manawyrm @Nomaxice i wonder how feasible and stable it could be, hmmmmmm
Show threadManawyrm | SarahNov 10, 2022
@Devourer_ITA @Foone @Nomaxice not sure if there's a way to store anything in L3 cache directly. Probably only via undocumented registers, etc.
