TAKE ME OFF THIS EMAIL LIST, YOU ARE CRASHING MY ACCOUNT EVERYDAY !!!! [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > Hi, Just wondering: would REBOL run on a NEC V20 (an 10MHz 8088 clone) running MINIX with 640KB (or 1MB) of memory? It would be very cool so see such an old machine run the tiny webserver or do other stuff. It's (for now) purely for showing off :-) (more useful(?) would be running it on my 386 running RedHat 5.0, my A1200, my PII... oh what the heck! I've got 6 or 7 different (but mostly antique) machines it could run on and that would (without any use :) be very cool and allows me to finally get to put some time in REBOL (I've been on this list since it started but I haven't had the time to actually use REBOL :-( I'm staying on this list because I don't want to miss a thing and because I really respect Carl's work (both AmigaOS and REBOL!)). Anyway: potential platforms, just want to check if they'll do: PII-233/Win2k, 386sx20/Linux 5, Amiga 1230/AmigaOS 3.0 - yes to all (?) 286-12, probably MINIX - ? v20-10, dito - ? Sun Sparcstation 2 (if I ever get it working that is :( ) - yes (?) Would it be useful to run REBOL on those old boxes? Guess so as it's designed for everything from small devices (though even cellular phones have more computing power than the v20 :-) Some other questions: - (How) can I let Java and REBOL work together? - Can I access par/ser ports directly from REBOL (to send plain bits to them, for e.g. control of a LED board or those kind of things)? - Is there a statue for Carl, he'd deserve it! I'll probably post more in here as I'll be working on an assignment for school, involving a complete website (from installing Linux to making webgfx) and if it's possible I want to do the CGI part in REBOL (as I don't know any other cgi-language and if I have to learn one, why not learn a good one!) and I'll probably walk into some problems :) Greetings, -- Ewald B�rger
