Someone needs to make a replica one just for the purpose of running DOOM on it.

Man, I was just joking but you madmen are actually trying it.

I love you.

I wonder if the person who created that machine had any idea how far their creation would go.

I doubt they would have imagined it would be emulated on a far more advanced machine.

Clickspring [YouTube] [Patreon] has an ongoing project producing a replica with era-appropriate tooling. He's actively contributed to research on the design and functioning of the device in furtherance of the project as well.

Clickspring on YouTube has built a replica, just ask him nicely

I watched his yt series until he stopped publishing it.

as entertaining and enlightening as it was to watch, I didn't really want to pay for it. though, I don't fault him in wanting to get paid for his efforts.
