i.e. The first picture you see of the machine is running Microsoft Flight Simulator. The First. They knew this was the standard for compatibility.
My question would be Jet by Sublogic, and ... most unfortunately Xenix x86.
Which leads me to believe that... you need a very low power cMos CPU, to have that battery life.
There are 12Mhz Harris cMos 286s but they are collector items, and the next step is 486slcs, which may run Xenix 386 w/ TCP/IP stack, rather well.
It’s an ESP32. You can emulate any system you want.
Part of the point though is that emulating an original PC takes very little power. A 286 doesn’t get you much (who on earth wants to run a 286 OS)?
I could see a case for a 386/486 for running old DOS apps just so you have extra memory, but you could also simply port DOSBox-X to the ESP32 and do things that way.
