“Can I use my Newton as a web server?”
Really? That’s a frequently asked question?
- kwhitefoot 4y agoI doubt that any question related to the Apple Newton would be frequently asked! Assuming that Apple Newton is what it is about, the FAQ doesn't seem to explain.
- gurchik 4y agoSimilar to Doom, there is a group of people who try to get web servers running on unconventional hardware. There is an HTTP server for the Nintendo 3DS for example: https://github.com/dimaguy/3ds-httpd https://github.com/dimaguy/3ds-httpd
- layer8 4y agoThe F in FAQ isn’t to be taken at face value: […] text consisting of questions and their answers may thus be called a FAQ regardless of whether the questions are actually frequently asked. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FAQ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FAQ]
- Koala_ice 4y agoYes. I wrote the web server for it back in 1998. It was actually pretty cool since we also integrated a public "wall", calendar and contacts sharing, instant messaging, and even a federated discovery protocol for other Newton servers.
