What I would like to see a small micro processer board
with a flash memory and a serial port and a few switches.
This would be used to emulate a paper tape reader/punch
for things like bootstraps and other small programs like
FOCAL for the PDP-8 or other early computers that did
not boot from BASIC in rom.
