    Pocket 386

    That's awesome concept! I would go for bigger form factor with floppy and better keyboard! If I only have time and skills to do that. Sounds great though It's alright working for basic stuff. I prefer to use Windows 3.11 there though and I go to 95 if the program needs Win 9x. Early 95/3.1...

    Pocket 386

    Main point of pocket386 is not because it's cheap for more than it worth. For me Book 8088 v2 and Pocket386 are the only books, representing experience from 80s and 90s I want to use in 2024, cause they are small and have color active screen first! Oldest books worth to use in my collection are...

    Book 8088 discovery and modification thread

    Thanks, but yeah, that's not what I wanted. Not a big fan of Floppy emulators. Would be cool to make small controller, single floppy for that pin-connector at the back

    Book 8088 discovery and modification thread

    It would be cool if somebody can design a box combining controller and 3.5 drive together and all that beauty could be connected to the ISA pins at the back. I tried multiple storages connected to USB... Only CF (card readers) and USB sticks work.... No FDDs... I have several. off topic: I...

    Book 8088 discovery and modification thread

    Is it possible to make another sound card, like simple sound blaster to have another option for book 8088, other than AdLib or this port is dedicated to AdLib only? I know about PicoGUS project (60pin edition)

    Book 8088 discovery and modification thread

    I still really want to know if this requires any special key to work? Or just device=sddrv.sys? none of XT laptops, including book 8088 reacting on SDLPT. 486+ laptops are fine, XT tower is fine too, but I don't need this device there.
