LazyPC is an IBM PC 5150 emulator. It implements the Intel 8088 CPU, various supporting chips on the PC motherboard, up to two floppy drives, and the IBM Monochrome Graphics Adapter (MDA). It is in the public domain.

There are a lot of IBM PC emulators. This one is different:

• Public domain software.
• No dependencies besides the C standard library.
• Runs on the Linux virtual console or in a terminal -- no graphical environment is required.
• Minimal amount of code -- four-digit line count.
• Debugger that you can activate at any time by pressing the F12 key.
• Minimalist design -- the only machine supported is the IBM PC 5150.
