Second Life on an Apple II
Streaming a Windows desktop down to an Apple II over a 115kbps serial connection. Second Life, the online virtual world, is shown as an example. This was done as an "art project" (i.e. it has no practical value). See comp.sys.apple2.programmer for technical discussion. Thanks to retrofloppy.com for the USB/Serial cable. Apple II Forever!
