That's pretty damn complete. It has Think C, CodeWarrior, etc., and they seem to work.
It's awesome, but I could see the copyright police coming after it.

#12If you select Thousands of Colors it changes the resolution and everything looks like negatives, I thought it only supported 256 Colors, but unexpectedly choosing Millions of Colors is also supported. ex: https://imgur.com/a/nqo8v0e
Looks like the project uses GitHub for issue tracking, so you can submit bug reports there: https://github.com/mihaip/infinite-mac/issues/new

#13You know what's nice? The 13" (rescaled) 4:3 screen is easier to read than my current setup. Also, the menu's are nice and short. Very focus. I totally understand how I, and many people in the past, were able to pump out huge amounts of code in a week

#14Just for giggles, I tried launching with extensions disabled, and it worked so that "Extensions Disabled" appeared in the boot screen. Didn't click around enough after that to see if things no longer worked without these extensions.
Also noticed the scroll bar when navigating folders did not behave as expected. It's the only thing I noticed that made me notice which I find very impressive.

#15The idea that we could one day run todays operating systems in emulation (in the browser) seems so insane and infeasible but maybe one day it'll be possible. Advances in computation is one rare thing that cheers my spirit up in a world where a lot of scary trends are pointing down.
Isn't it already possible today with Wasm? Sure the browser adds overhead, but merely running an OS isn't super intensive.

MetroWerks has a lot of reason to be annoyed at this
source: I wrote the MPW setup scripts for MWerks on a contract, presented to MWerks VP of Engineering; subsequently Jobs+black ops locked them out

#17It's exactly how I remember the Macs my grade school was using back then. Click around a little bit, and boom, it is frozen. Do you wait? Do you force quit? The watch gives little feedback.
Hah same. If it had kid pix it would be just like when I was a little kid.

#18Is this WebAssembly? Because if it is then we've come a long way in the web!
Re: Infinite Mac
#19Does anyone know of a way of running Windows 98 in a browser, but with a custom hard drive image that you can point it to? There's several sites for running 98 in browser but none let you use a custom virtual hard drive image. I'd like to do it for some fun retro stuff. I guess self hosting, but how do you do the whole QEMU Browser part?
(custom floppy/CD image would also be an option as I could load the retro app that way)
