I miss the days when every new machine was an experiment to see the best computing model.

I used to own a Libretto just like the one on the image. Ran OpenBSD on it a while. Those machines were ridiculously fun. They had this little trackpoint style pointer on the right of the screen to use it in handheld mode. Truly ahead of their time.

The MSX Paxon looks interesting. I didn't know Last Call BBS was based on a real machine.

They probably can run Doom
