I'd be very interested if you chronicle this somewhere. A part of me long wanted to do the same with an O2 workstation, but in more recent years it became much less tenable due to the modern Web (half the web is already broken in minor modern browsers like Firefox), modern languages (Rust? or even Python, now that half of its ecosystem is dependent on Rust by way of cryptograpy), and modern tools (I'd be fired for disuse of Slack, which isn't open-protocol so that it could be used with a portable client).
