    Somethings bring joy into the world, simply through the act of existing.

    Thats how I feel about MicroWeb .

    A web browser for DOS. Under active development. A friggin unicorn.

    From the GitHub page : To run you will need: Intel 8088 or compatible CPU CGA compatible graphics card (EGA and VGA are backwards compatible) A network interface (it is possible to use your machines serial port with the EtherSLIP driver) A mouse is desirable but not 100% required Limitations Text only
    (this may change in a later release) HTTP only (no HTTPS support) No CSS or Javascript Very long pages may be truncated if there is not enough RAM available

    Thats awesome. I mean, yeah. No HTTPS. No Javascript. But. Still. Actively developed. For 8088s! And CGA! How rad is that?
