I actually did that a while back… It was ungodly slow… I did the uVAX booting 4.2BSD.

Obviously the faster thing is to port SIMH directly to the browser.

Which I should imagine should be easy to do, if I knew more about browsers…… lol

An MS-DOS build of SIMH in JS-DOS or adding emscripten as target to SIMH? Anyway, keep us posted.

Ever since I ran Quasijarus on SIMH I’ve been hooked… getting 4.2 to boot up was an awesome moment tho!

Considering the zero deployment possibility it sure has the possibility. Emscripten really is a game changer, being able to run C. Flash 10 was in the same direction before everyone piled on and drove to kill Flash.

If I had to do some web deployment thing today I wouldn’t waste a second with Java. Its beyond a disaster right now.
