I know China
is putting big renminbi into MIPS so they don't have to
deal with the licensing headaches of x86, but it's cool to see such a
device, and I have to admit that Mr Stallman practises what he
preaches. I'm even tempted to get one just to see what those systems
are like.
If you like that sort of thing and want to get collectable, try
looking for a NEC Bungo Mini. Mid 80's, runs CP/M with full Kanji.
Very small--not much bigger than a Netbook.
No, I mean Godson/Loongson systems, not necessarily Asian computers -- my
Tomy Pyuuta systems scratch that itch :)
