Building a $14 Macintosh

Published at : 23 Dec 2025

Today, we're using the Pico Micro Mac project, along with a project from the endlessly cool @RonsCompVids, to build an entire Macintosh 128K inside of a Raspberry Pi Pico microcontroller!

⭐️ I auction old tech from my videos on Whatnot! https://whatnot.pxf.io/retro
⭐️ I use Bambu 3D printers https://bit.ly/bambu3D
