Given that I want to target i486
with @OS1337 but don't want to deal with obsolete hardware that is dying of old age, I think it's more fitting to consider a sort-of mainboard to shove some 486SX-SOM with PC/104-Plus
on and have the few necessities hooked up to it. Maybe even put it inside a THINN #Pizzabox-style #case?
It would also make a new "bridge" machine to interface old PCI & ISA hardware and allow connecting i.e. a #QuadFlop and roll with that...
