- Best way to go about using 2000 on the modern web.

Connect to internet
Browservice - proxy but goes one step further and renders the page and actually only sends back a clickable image to the browser on the old machine. Almost like screensharing.

The Home Dialup ISP: Bell 103 through V.92 with automatic call recording
I have a [Browservice](https://github.com/ttalvitie/browservice) server set up for the faster machines, which basically streams images, and a [retroproxy](https://github.com/humbertocsjr/retroproxy) service for the slower machines :)

I can barely believe what I am seeing...
Original iMac G3 (the very first) running Mac OS X 10.1 and Netscape 7.01. The magic comes from this program : https://github.com/ttalvitie/browservice

make ie6 render pages normally.
Browservice may be suitable if you have to use IE6 and you're OK using a proxy system.

If you're happy with OpenBSD, probably any computer is good enough
"browservice" will render web pages server-side and then deliver them to your browser as an image with simple javascript.
It works in virtually all "old" browsers and can be very useful for older computers.

Only thing I'm sad about is I cannot view r/windows98 on my Win98..
TL;DR: Read the entirety of Readme.md (it's at the bottom of https://github.com/ttalvitie/browservice). If you still have specific questions, i'll try to help.

How to create a Virtualbox modem/LAN connection for Windows 98?
Check out browservice; either run it on your host, or in another VM.

Current Google Chrome in 32-bit XP: Easy Mode
A 4th gen i7, the VM gets 2.3 GB, but I've done similarly stupid stuff on an AMD Athlon 64 (sluggish but usable, 720p YT dropping frames but watchable). Browservice running in a VM to serve XP's IE8 is another fun Goldbergian trick.

Mastodon for Apple II
According to people at CryptoAncienne (https://github.com/classilla/cryanc), a 25MHz 68030 needs about 22 seconds of maths to handshake a modern TLS server. During that time, most servers close connection.
So on an 1MHz 6502, I think it'd be minutes just for handshaking.

CryAnc - proxy you can run on the same (old) machine. Pairs nicely with Classilla

Weird architectures weren't supported to begin with
Take a look at crypto ancienne, a modern TLS library for less modern compilers.

Cy384/ssheven: A modern SSH client for Mac OS 7/8/9
It's the encryption. For Crypto Ancienne, it may take 20 or more seconds for a cacheless 25MHz '030 to do a local TLS 1.2 transaction, and that's with skipping a whole bunch of steps. Pretty much anything under 40MHz will have timeouts because most servers won't wait.
