Mine arrived this morning (prompting a dark muttering at Farnell for sending
it second-class, my orders usually arrive rather quicker than that!).  I
don't imagine even thinking about porting GEM to it would be particularly
sensible, not that such considerations ever stopped me from thinking about
anything -- although I am tempted to try installing DOSbox and installing
GEM in that ;)

particularly unedifying photograph of the machine propped up against my
tertiary monitor.  Those of you who see my occasional outbursts on Twitter
and/or Facebook may be sick of this link already, but hey, I got mine so
*blows raspberry*!  Maybe I'll take a picture with the proper camera later,
after I've dusted my desk...]
