I’d love to also go the opposite direction, a full-sized laptop with an ESP32 running tiny386 and Windows 95 ^_^

This could be great if the rest of the chassis was filled with batteries.

diy 486 schematics (around year 2000)[0]. no longer available. Discription/overview[3]. :( But, current linux doesn't support 486 cpus.

Was turned into something commerical (?2002[2])[1]. Perhaps modern version would be the old AMD cyrix chips?
