I have previously posted about trying to reach back
to 1990. Since then I have transitioned to 1986 (when
the first 80386 computer had a 40 MB hard disk) and
today I have moved back to 1983 when the IBM PC XT
came out. Although I'm using a 20 MB hard disk instead
of the standard 10 MB.
See http://pdos.org for University Challenge 8086.
It comes with a C compiler that is close to C90, and
builds MSDOS executables.
It is unclear what the system is capable of.
Every byte of the disk is public domain.
