Amiga 2000 – Codename: Tesseract (2021)

This Tesseract project is such an interesting study in what it takes to build a computer from scratch.<p>I think Amigas occupy such a cool middle ground between eminently <i>discoverable</i> - one can learn how <i>everything</i> works in them - while at the same time, with a heap of extra RAM and a faster CPU - you can run an almost modern <i>desktop</i> <i>environment</i> on them, including development environment.

Love the comment at the end :<p>Nobody donates anything. so don’t bother. Looks like only Youtubers get all goodies LOLOL ;P<p>——<p>This guy so honest. Which adds bonus parts to his already incredible magic.

A true labor of love - much respect!<p>I owned an Amiga 2000 back in the day and learned the C programming language on it.

Really loved the Amiga, and used it way past its supposed expiration date. I really think if it wasn&#x27;t for commodores mismanagement, this computer would have a lot more potential than Macs or PCs nowadays.

When you see projects like this from start to finish you get to appreciate both how they used to squeeze so much out of the hardware, but also just how efficient our modern computers are in terms of materials.<p>I mean a Raspberry Pi Zero would run circles around this thing and that is awesome but it also loses a little of the charm at the same time.

Wow!
