FujiNet
FujiNet is a multi-peripheral emulator and WiFi network device for vintage computers. The first completed hardware was for Atari 8-Bit computers and development has begun for other systems with the goal of supporting as many as possible. What sets FujiNet apart from other WiFi devices is the new Network Device (the N device, or NDEV). The N device allows vintage computers that do not have enough processing power to handle TCP/IP connections talk to the modern internet over WiFi. Virtual adapters have been created for many protocols including: TCP, UDP, HTTP, FTP, TNFS, HTTPS (SSL/TLS), SSH, TELNET, WebDAV and JSON parser.Wed Mar 13 09:29:53 2024 - permalink -- https://fujinet.online/fujinet/

Obsolescence Guaranteed
Since you're here, you are probably looking for vintage computers. I've been a computer hobbyist since the early Eighties and over the years, I've gathered a nice collection of machines that played a role in shaping the microcomputer revolution. This site is dedicated to those machines.Mon Sep 23 10:44:07 2019 - permalink -
Over the last few years, I also got into homebrewing: designing and building your own microcomputers. Whatever it is, I hope you find on this site what you came to look for!- https://obsolescence.wixsite.com/obsolescence
