#2Note that it will download around ~300Mb of data directly to your browser, so it might take a bit to load from slow connections.

#4Wow, things have come full circle. I built and launched a browser-based office suite in about 1998 called Office Wherever that used a Java Applet.
VCs laughed us out of every meeting.. "No-one will put their private documents on the Internet! You're mad!"
WHO'S MAD NOW, HUH? Huh? Huh...

Are there any non-native thing that runs in a browser?

#9I can't find it anymore, but related and interesting is office 365.
To have a quick online version of office, they ran the eve/dll's in the cloud and send it back to the end user.
While it most definitely worked, it was definitely expensive as a first version. But it was too stop Google with their online office suite, as they didn't had an online response yet.
( Searched for the source, but can't find it. If anyone has it, please share. It's pretty old news by now).
