| Sep 14, 2020 at 16:45 | comment | added | jamesqf | Besides the technical problems of full simulation (which @RETRAC's answer nicely addresses), there would seem to be a very practical one, which is that there probably aren't enough engineers and programmers willing to devote time to such a (pointless, IMHO) project, and no billionaires willing to pay them to do it. | |

| Sep 14, 2020 at 11:07 | comment | added | Walter Mitty | Oddly enough, Digital Equipment Corp. (DEC) sold digital components for the first two years of its existence, 1957-1958. Customers could combine these components to produce gear that did useful work. Then they built the PDP-1, and they were off to the races. | |

| Sep 14, 2020 at 9:26 | comment | added | Criticizing Israel not allowed | The N64 has two main chips: a CPU chip, and a graphics chip. There's only one way you can wire them together and make them work, and that's the way the N64 is wired. What would be the advantage of letting you make different combinations that don't work? | |
