ES1849 Ep.3: Unique Soviet computer test run, BIOS review, and playing some classic games!

The first review of this computer on YouTube and a great final for a half-year restoration project! This is a test run of the rarest Soviet PC – ES-1949, produced in a low quantity since 1989 in the USSR. Practically none survived as for 2022, and this one is up and running. This very machine is built with components of both foreign (i80286) and Soviet origin, thus, marking the end of that epoch.
