Web Browsing Via Contiki?
« on: August 06, 2003, 07:18:00 AM »
hmm just realised, that contiki has been ported to soo many devices (gameboy included!) .. that maybe you could run it, ontop of a emulator running on the xbox!  ohmy.gif

maybe?

would be funny to read my hotmail, on contiki, via a gameboy emulator! lol  beerchug.gif

Why would you want to?  If you really want to browse the web on xbox, then you can install Linux

Interesting... it's getting filed away for further investigation.

I already have a basic web client in MXM. It's used to fetch newsfeeds currently, but I am looking to make it a bit more robust before moving on to full web-based files.

Because I dont want to install linux, but do want to browse the web from my Xbox.

There, I dont think you will get a more succinct answer than that. smile.gif
