A hobbyist release called VECOS adds a windows-like operating system to the Vectrex, the early-1980s vector graphics game console, running on the UVMC2 hardware add-on. A demonstration video is circulating among retro computing fans, drawing modest discussion and around 34 points on a technology forum, where commenters are weighing in on the idea of a desktop-style environment on such limited vintage hardware.

Why now: Retro computing enthusiasts are excited by novel software that pushes new functionality out of 1980s hardware.
