So back in January, while I was off social media, I came up with an idea to build a new retro 8/16-bit computer with a Raspberry Pi form factor and the same 40-pin edge connector. I wanted to use the 65C816 @ 14-20 MHz and incorporate the ability to emulate an Apple IIGS, along with native mode with a simple OS with a command-line like MS-DOS but with memory protection and multitasking (I'm thinking FreeDOS, SeaBIOS, and FreeRTOS could all be ported/compiled with a 65C816 assembler/C compiler).
