I turned my website into an old PC.

<a class="post-cta" href="/editions/personal-computer/">
  <span class="post-cta__eyebrow">Explore in your browser</span>
  <span class="post-cta__title">Boot the computer -></span>
  <span class="post-cta__line">Turn the sound on for the beeps and disk-drive noises.</span>
</a>

Personal Computer is the new edition of nader.io, inspired by the IBM PC. Violet stripes, cyan text, a boot sequence and a working command line. Type `ll` to look around, read `readme.txt`, or browse my writing, projects and art.

There are six mini games tucked into the directory:

- [HEADCRASH](/editions/personal-computer/headcrash/): Breakout with tiny hard disks for bricks.
- [FLOPPYDASH](/editions/personal-computer/floppydash/): dig through cables, collect floppies and dodge falling drives.
- [DISKINVADERS](/editions/personal-computer/diskinvaders/): defend your computer by firing floppy disks at invaders.
- [DOSLANDER](/editions/personal-computer/doslander/): land a computer tower on the moon. Gently.
- [FLAKE](/editions/personal-computer/flake/): Snake with a floppy-disk diet.
- [MICROKONG](/editions/personal-computer/microkong/): climb past Bill Gates' sliding MS-DOS packages and rescue the floppy.

Click an `.exe` or type its name to play. Keyboard and touch controls work throughout.
