I'm somewhat interested, I just don't have access to older hardware. I
can probably get somewhat older operating systems running in emulation
or virtual machines (OS/2, Windows 95, Mac System 7), but they'll still
be running on pretty modern hardware, even if I limit the RAM (etc)
available to them. I know even less about 8-bit micros; I was a kid
when I used them.
I have some development experience on OS/2, but not on the others.
