I can't find a link, but back in the 90s, someone published a website being served by a retro (IIRC) computer to Slashdot. It was surprisingly resilient to the hug of death because the content wasn't dynamic and it served clients serially.
- SwellJoe 7y agoThere used to be a web server running Contiki on, I think, a Commodore 64. Which is amazing even if it only serves one client at a time. I dunno if that's the one you're thinking of, but it's the most amazing "can we put a webserver on X" story I know of.
