nice thing about the rpi or beaglebone black, it can serve up localtalk appletalk shares with netatalk running on the chip correct? plus you can run an app to "filter" website HTTP/HTML fetches to make them text only for older localtalk based macs when using TCPIP over localtalk.
or... use the rpi/beaglebone to render the webpages, and then the rendered pages are converted into an older format that an older browser would understand before feeding it back to the mac. (i know, im getting carried away).
hell you could almost use the rpi/beagle bone for all the major grunt work and processing, streaming, scripting, etc.. and the mac is just the input/output device. But the only way for smooth video in that case would be if the beagle was directly on the PDS bus writing to an assigned videobuffer in RAM/V-RAM.
that would be the hackish way to bring flash/HTML5 video/audio to an old world mac. ;-) (kinda like the old DVD decoder days).
Would be kinda neat.
