@kkarhan @rasteri Yeah, I love having the option of "real hardware" when it's possible. In fact despite making device emulators I like using vintage hardware whenever possible 😅

@polpo Same, but I guess you'd not have started the #PicoGUS project (nor would've @rasteri done the #Wee86 & #WeeCee) if that was always the option.
