Pocket386 Retro DOS Computer 386SX-40Mhz

I wish they'd make one of these with the Vortex86EX SOM-128-EX inside it. It'd be like a modern Toshiba Libretto 110.

nice. 8MB RAM is a lot for a 386. Something with a math coprocessor would have been better. Also there is no info about the configuration (IBM compatible BIOS, PIC )

The SX does seem like an odd choice, a stopgap back in the day that allowed 286 board designs a slightly longer life.

Although as a DOS machine perhaps it makes the implementation easier for that reason. They were popular as a replacement for 286 implemented as a daughter board that plugged into the 286 socket.

and I don't think Intel ever made a 40Mhz processor, AMD did, and I believe it came with a math coprocessor onboard.

Incorrect. Am386SX-40 had no FPU. I collect many variations of PC-era processors.

Honestly, I think one of these with an esp32 could be a true revival of personal computing, old style.

Like a Lilygo t-deck but with a laptop form factor to make it practical to program on-device.

Keyboard will make or break this for usability
