Their website has not prevented me from finding out what this is! It is hardware. I even found some photos elsewhere: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.digitec.ch&#x2F;en&#x2F;page&#x2F;oxocard-learning-to-programme-with-a-swiss-minicomputer-26261" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.digitec.ch&#x2F;en&#x2F;page&#x2F;oxocard-learning-to-programme...</a>

Horrible misuse of the term Minicomputer. So triggering!

I was expecting something as large as the PDP-11.

So this is the Teenage Engineering (specifically, the Pocket Operators) of mini ... errr ... microcomputers? They look really cool. I&#x27;m not sure there is much room for extension, but that isn&#x27;t really the target for these things.

Look, you can’t call a tiny microcomputer a minicomputer. You just can’t!

Looks like the site could do with some proof-reading.<p>But 40 CHF (approximately the same in dollars or euro) is pretty good for a tiny computer with a screen and a pile of sensors and an easy programming environment.

Neat, but I opted for the Beepy: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;beepy.sqfmi.com&#x2F;" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;beepy.sqfmi.com&#x2F;</a>

This reminds me in a way of Java Cards &#x2F; JCOP. It would be cool to see more people hack around on embedded systems, I&#x27;m all for stuff like this lowering the bar for entry. Cool!

They don&#x27;t seem to have any GPIO, I2C, etc.
