Heartily be welcomed to the channel! Are there any ideas/hints/caveats you would like to share? :) For me it was a curiosum, and next video, I show how I handled the license topic, but I am really not knowledgeable about it.
I am very glad you have been doing these videos on the Pocket 386. I have ordered one and then got quite sad when the video problems happened and you seemed ready to abandon the computer as a lemon. I am very glad you found a solution to its continued use. I was excited that you found TSX-32 that I have looked at many times but never had hardware to check it out. I have nothing to offer in the way of experience, but a lot of cheerleading. Thanks for sharing all your explorations!
Be most heartily welcomed! - Well, if you want to share ANYTHING, please do, because regarding TSX-32, I am rather "blank". 😁 I discovered that it also works in "up to the late 1990s" laptops quite well, but may hang in newer machines.
I remember using a lot of Digiboard products with Xenix and SCO Unix back in the 1980s/1990s. They had cards which supported multiple serial ports to which we connected Wyse50 terminals. It's interesting to see an OS which supported serial terminals with a DOS-like interface. I would be curious to see what kind of programs ran on a serial terminal connected to TSX32. Could one run Lotus-123 on a serial terminal, for example? Or would those programs have to be written specifically for the particular kind of terminal? Thank you for sharing this video!
No idea about the Lotus 1-2-3 terminal, but … as you mention Xenix: Xenix is “incoming", in a whole bunch of videos! I have not tried yet TSX-32’s serial terminal… And: how cool you used Wyse 50s! - And thank YOU for sharing, I am actually always on the lookout for your anecdotes!
Maybe less extraordinary than your usual adventures, but you could try installing FreeDOS with GEM desktop on this cutie. Another option would be the x86 versions of CP/M and MP/M from Digital Research.
Happy to run across your video. I literally installed TSX-32 on an old 486 about 2 weeks ago!

Awesome.

The path of Qemm? Sounds like a mission or route in some kind of rpg..
Suggestion… have you seen PsychDOS?
That DOES look interesting - thank you!

The will of the people, Steffi! If that it is, then that I shall do! 😁
Tsx on top of Dos, and MS win on top of tsx on top of dos. Poor 386
Right?! I need an old version of SimH, to run on top of Windows… 😄
@@ninoivanov they would stack up very well 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Have you tried to run Doom on it? ;)
No… but interesting idea. ☺️
Fastdoom would run but the speed would be a slideshow probably lol
