I'm sorry to tell you it is even more complicated than if it can run doom. Does this count as doom? this video Another definition i have seen is the QWERTY keyboard restriction. If i remember correctly some good calculators from Texas Instruments have abc keyword to be allowed on some big math tests in US. (Or is this maybe just a myth in Europe?)

Porting Doom to everything has always been a thing. Way before Atwood's Law was ever a thing. It was the original Atwood's Law. :) this video
