I guess I'll need to change the name if it can do 286!

I got an M5Stack FACES handheld dev kit, and am turning it into a portable pocket PC emulator! Early, quick 'n dirty results...

The firmware is a port of XTulator which is my 80186 PC emu project. This was a very quick beginning of the port which I did this evening. There's still a ton to do, but it looks feasible.
An 80186 PC emulator written in C, can run many old games and operating systems! A work in progress.
