If someone really wants to browse using just an MSX, they could make a WISE
server for MSX, right? And since the TCP/IP that is under development
allows multitasking, the MSX WISE and FudeBrowser could run on the same
machine.

So the WISE server acts as a kind of proxy server?

Anyway, to make it practical, you'd need something like a WISE server per
country, or at least continent.

I think a WISE server can most easily be implemented in Java:
- portable
- sending streams over TCP/IP is easy
- GIF and JPEG decoding are already present in most Java environments
