  A future revision including a parallel port would also be cool

  Very nice video! Coming from the ATX side of retro stuff, your videos are very entertaining and interesting. Looking forward for more adventures 😊

  Thank you for starting this series! ❤<br>While I didn&apos;t follow you down this PC/104 rabbit hole like I did with your laptop series, this series did inspire me to try and build a tiny but very powerful win98 build to bridge the gap between my mobile 710 and my XP Thinkpad.<br>Looking forward to the next video!

  MMX is a single instruction, multiple data (SIMD) instruction set architecture extension* designed by Intel, introduced on January 8, 1997 with its Pentium P5 (microarchitecture) based line of microprocessors, named &quot;Pentium with MMX Technology&quot;. It developed out of a similar unit introduced on the Intel i860, and earlier the Intel i750 video pixel processor. MMX is a processor supplementary capability that is supported on IA-32 processors by Intel and other vendors as of 1997. AMD also added MMX instruction set in its K6 processor.

  Zima huh??? &nbsp;Where is the carbonated beer? &nbsp;XD <br><br>Interesting that you found an MMX PC/104 card. &nbsp;I am a big fan of the P166 MMX and is often my goto in my retro builds.

  I&apos;d love to find a old thin client.<br><br>While thrifting I found a new old stock serial transfer cable for windows transfer wizard. I&apos;d love to be able to use it with my win9x slot 1 Pentium III for backing up game saves, fix it utilities 4.0 system file backups, etc to one of my XP machines.

  What is the gamepad at <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aDHBInGLhd4&amp;t=30">0:30</a>?<br>Is that good for DOS gaming, like Jazz Jackrabbit?

  A MeLe Overclock 4C N100 PC would have suited you well too (far more compact) and if you get the barebones unit like I did, it takes a 32gb SODIMM and you provide your own NVMe. The Zimaboard 2 is cool and all but it&apos;s also bulkier with all those external devices attached.
