Homebrew Computer? - Next Please!

Source: https://incoherency.co.uk/blog/stories/scamp-lives.html

2020 and 2021 have become the years of home-built 8bit systems, haven't they? I am just waiting for my grandma to come around the corner with her own homebrew ... 👵v1.0!

But I am just kidding. What James Stanley presents on his blog is another proof, that 8bit systems are not just fun. They make a serious contribution to anyone who wants to learn about the basics of computers, the underlying functionality, and how to understand all of it.

Excellent, James.

The frontend panels reminded me a little bit of PDP machines, and I think that was quite an intentional design decision. One can be curious of the final result. In the meantime James' blog article is an entertaining read.
