Oh yes, with TR that's completely possible, but the author's idea is to
use the minimum hardware, i.e., MSX1 with 180kb diskdrive!

If you think about the Internet network structure, you will see that your
computer doesn't work alone while running a web-browser. So, with a
special web server, we can transfer some computational load from the
clients (MSX in our case) to the server, allowing us to have full
graphical browsing.

With TR, perhaps we can use MSX as a X terminal!
