I had this same thought a few weeks ago when I heard how Opera Mini works.

It uses the Opera servers to filter out all the advanced features and replace them with prerendered images but the site functionality is left as complete as possible.

If there was a web service or even a proxy server you could run on a local computer, that would be a pretty cool way to handle web browsing.

It would sure make older systems and browsers run better.

Especially if you had the proxy server reduce the colors and resolution so that the browser didn't have to do it on the slower cpu.

Maybe have something in the user agent string to tell it how much to reduce the page.
