From 2015? International Obfuscated C Code Contest.

> This entry weighs in at a magical 4043 bytes (8086 nibbles, 28,301 bits). It manages to implement most of the hardware in a 1980’s era IBM-PC using a few hundred fewer bits than the total number of transistors used to implement the original 8086 CPU.

This is a thing of beauty.

Although this entry claims to have its own web site, I got a GoDaddy squatvert when I clicked the link.
