today's current thought: there has to be some super duper ISA card that can be built for computers like the tandy 1000 that only has three ISA slots that give you all the "essentials" without occupying more than one slot
<andlabs>
whatever "the essentials" are
<andlabs>
I have a 1000 (not A) now but I haven't had a chance to look inside yet
<cr1901>
There are dozens of multifunction cards.
<andlabs>
yes but keyword on all, and also I guess modern, because I don't know what matters nowadays anymore
<andlabs>
I guess memory expansion + integrated XT CF Lite + maybe basic VGA and sound or serial parallel joystick via a breakout box?
<cr1901>
Not my aesthetic, but all the power to you
<andlabs>
yes breakout box, not second bracket
<andlabs>
IDK I'm just spitballing
<andlabs>
tandy at least has onboard video
<andlabs>
and I do ahve that mce2vga
