"This computer eats Amigas, Ataris, and Apples for lunch!"
"This machine delivers arcade-quality graphics, best-in-class sound, and lightning-fast action, all in one complete machine you can actually afford."
Based on Raspberry Pi 4, the Microsynth 8 is inspired by 80s and early 90s micro computers, the Amiga 500/600, some Soviet ZX Spectrum clones, and of course, educational keyboard Famiclones. It has 8 GB of RAM, and is intended to be a retro gaming machine! oh, and you can use floppy disks with it too. One unit exists... for now ;>
More info
- Broadcom BCM2711, Quad core Cortex-A72 ARM CPU, runs at 1.8GHz
- 8 GB LPDDR4-3200 SDRAM

- Revolutionary 3D Graphics!
- Currently working on updating the OS and improving other stuff
- Can emulate up to PSP, and load ROMS onto floppy disk(NES and most PC Engine games)
- Primitive web browsing

"This one-of-a-kind computer outperforms desktops twice its size!"
"This little machine gives you the power of the Microsynth 8, but in a sleek, compact package that fits anywhere."
what if there's a machine with a console form factor with home computer capabilities? This is an upcoming computer inspired by Nintendo's Family Basic and the Subor SB2000 :p. It is currently being worked on, and is hopefully gonna be made to order :D
More info
- sbc will vary, but it'll probably be enough for retro gaming ig.
- 2 GB DDR3 SDRAM
- Micro SD Flash storage
- Optional 3.5 inch Floppy disk drive

- Hopefully a more up-to-date Operating System
Expected price: $60 or $75 maybe (whether it includes a floppy drive or not.)
"Absolutely dominates the competition!"
"This little powerhouse is like, VERY powerful!"
Idk, I guess like, a "premium" microsynth???? Like, it's gonna have a metal casing and a Cherry ML mechanical keyboard. It's planned to have 4 GB of RAM cuz i'm cheap lol. HOWEVER, it's hopefully gonna have a faster CPU, so it might be a lil more powerful than the MS8, fingers crossed!!!.
More info
- not sure for the CPU, but it's probably gonna be x86 based, unlike the MS8 and MS2
- 4 GB RAM
- 3.5 inch Floppy disk drive
- Cherry ML mechanical keyboard
- Floppy drive and maybe Mega Drive cartridge support (because why not)
- Arcade-quality graphics and audio that are better than ever
Expected price: $110 (plus or minus however broke fluff is that week)
