Folks -
Just got this pointer from Antero. Reminds me of when the first
Apple II emulator (including the graphics) showed up in Squeak.
This is the wonderful thing about high-performance VMs for decent
languages (we'll allow JS here ;-) -- it means that one can engage in
the delights of low-level hackery, while producing an elegant or at
least understandable and accessible artifact [I can't vouch for this
particular one].
Tee hee

think you'll find this at least amusing if not incredible: Linux running in a
JavaScript PC emulator in your web browser (needs Firefox 4 or Chrome 11):

Once Linux has booted, you can try, e.g.:
tcc hello.c
./a.out
Even 'vi' works just fine...
Technical details in the page linked to as 'Technical notes' under
the terminal screen.
