the great obstacles

[AGSzabo]

i decided that there are exactly two big hurdles that keep me from using only amiga os:

- browser with stylesheets support
- java support

are there any other obstacles in the way?

well, at least a great new thread

in principle the software is all written already. it only needs to be ported.

i already have a pc put out of sight and acting as a firewall and router. though my main os is still gentoo linux. if i could see my pc screen-in-screen on amiga i would give it a try.

how is that possible? how do you do it? which tool on amiga side is required?

im sure it is going to have javascript one day. there are some other projekts with which code could be shared. maybe if all do their efforts together we get one good browser.
