Meanwhile, you can run the Z-Machine, at least up to v3 games (most of Infocom games) under a PostScript interpreter like PostScript.

So, it might run under 1GB or ram and less.

The Z-machine could run under 64k or RAM, or less, back in the day.

1GB is probably more than you'd need to store all the Infocom releases!

I know, there are even ports for the original Game Boy (not even the Color, the less powerful B/W one). I ran Calypso and Tristam Island on these as an experiment.

But I meant 1GB for the quantum computer OFC.

I've never seen the GB port. Are you sure? A quick google didn't return anything.
All Infocom releases PLUS all scanned manuals and Invisiclues...
