Newly made retro computers from Ali Express

Aus irgendwelchen chinesischen Fabriken fallen zur Zeit diese neu produzierten MS DOS Gadgets und man kann (konnte) sie z.B. bei Ali Express kaufen.

the real deal, kein raspberry pie, nicht fragen sondern einfach worshippen :)

Here’s where I bought the machines in May 2023:

An LGR review of the Book 8088 and Hand 386, newly-made retro computers on Aliexpress! No emulation here, these are DOS PCs running an 8088 and 386SX processor, using legacy chips on custom PCBs melded with open source projects, off-the-shelf components, and injection molded enclosures. They sure are neat! But lots of compromises, drawbacks, and odd design decisions.
