Lo-tech 8-bit IDE Adapter rev.2 - lo-tech.co.uk edit / delete
Homebrewable IDE adaptor for early PC hardware. Fortunately the ancient hard disk in my AT still works...

The author of mTCP, a lightweight TCP/IP stack for early PCs. Being able to run an FTP server on my AT definitely beats moving files around on floppies! (And was about the best way to rescue the existing contents of the hard disk.)

Retrograde Station edit / delete
A large collection of early PC "booter" games, mostly converted to be hard-disk installable. Useful if you're after period-appropriate software for an XT or AT. (Although this hostname appears to be pointing at a different site today, for some reason...)

The Dosbox-X project edit / delete
An extended version of dosbox, with more accurate hardware emulation -- so it can run a wider range of games and demos.
pcjs.org | The Original IBM PC in Your Browser edit / delete
Emulators for the PC and other platforms. In Javascript -- which seems crazy; I think it's more likely that my AT will still work in 20 years than that current Javascript will!

keendreams/keen · GitHub edit / delete
Source code for one of the Commander Keen games. The nice thing is that they've found several versions and imported the history into Git properly.

How to get away with disabling DRAM refresh « Reenigne blog edit / delete
Speeding up a demo for the IBM PC by disabling DRAM refresh, since the program accesses all the memory that needs refreshing regularly anyway. Neat.
