I, too, had a similar thought a while ago:
A deployment of UAE as a browser plugIn.
Does not need a ROM to run .adz files which bang the hardware out of the box. Probably not as fast as Java, but quite capable of delivering some interesting content.
AmigaOS as a hosted environment is another thing altogether; how would it communicate with the world outside its sandbox?
Another thing: what would be the standard 'hardware' requirements for software written to run in these 'FlAmi' (TM, patent applied for) ROM-freed environments?
Is it really worth the effort when old Amiga games have been superbly converted to Java anyway (I'm thinking Vision Software, here)?
A good idea, yes. I don't have time to do it myself, nor the expertise with the Windex platform to have it automatically install itself on every computer that visits Google with IE, either.
