"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.

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.
