"content": "Presenting my #MAME demo machine for #RetroFest 2024!\n\nThis is an EPOS unit. It's a Partner Audrey A4-1-A with a Celeron J3455 (2.3 GHz Apollo Lake) and 4GB RAM. It's a surprisingly well stacked machine - 4x USB 3, 2x serial, 2x GbE, HDMI out, VGA out, and on-board sound. The touchscreen is bright and clear, too.\n\nSo, what have I done with it? I've installed #openSUSE #Kalpa, created an #ArchLinux container with #distrobox and installed MAME in the container. It's running four copies of MAME (the #Psion SIBO emulator) and it's barely breaking a sweat!\n\nThis is my first time properly trying out an immutable distro, and I've been pleasantly surprised. It's Just Worked. I don't need this machine perfectly fine-tuned. I just need something quick and stable as a base, and to be able to easily run the latest version of MAME.\n\n#retrocomputing #kde #microOS #immutabledistro\nhttps://assets.oldbytes.space/assets.oldbytes.space/media_attachments/files/113/396/113/607/503/190/original/c0aada2661aae108.jpeg\nhttps://assets.oldbytes.space/assets.oldbytes.space/media_attachments/files/113/396/116/134/629/315/original/b0dde74ea152fe80.png\n",
