A Javascript PC Emulator


I came across a PC Emulator that can be run in the browsers using Javascript technology. The OS emulated is Linux. If you type ‘uname -a’ , you will get the following.

Linux (none) 2.6.20 #12 Wed Jan 11 01:11:20 CET 2012 i586 GNU/Linux

The URL is http://bellard.org/jslinux/ and as the technical notes say, it is written mainly using Javascript. The virtual machine stays in the client’s browser. Nothing will be sent back to the server.

This can be also used as a benchmark tool for testing Javascript Engines. The technology underneath it must ‘ve been great!
