I was just looking through the old news topics, and this one just really stuck out…had to reply.
I think this is a nice vision, even if it is a little impossible. It would be amazing if we could create a way for 68ks (and early PPC) to be compatible with the modern world. A web browser more compatible than the existing 68k ones (even if it is not Firefox 3.5.2
) and maybe some applications compatible with newer file formats. Has anyone ever thought about making a way for .docx to work on classic Mac OS?
Also, I really like the idea of a simple website for 68ks to load. It could cover many topics possibly, except it would be on one simple plain text site. It could be like a middleman between 68ks and the rest of the web!
Anyways, those are just my crazy thoughts. :lol:
