It's hard to imagine a HP-9100 with an Intel Core 9, math processor, gigs of RAM, color screen, terabyte drive and a laser printer sitting on top.

Even though I fiddle with them a bit, I like the originals. They have limitations by today's standards but that is what they are and is part of their charm.

Now there's a good project if you get bored: write a bare-metal HP 25 reimplementation for x86 systems. No Windows or anything, just boot straight to a direct port of HP 25 microcode (with LOTS more RAM and speed available).
