V86 is an x86 emulator that runs in the browser. It supports a selection of preconfigured historical and current operating systems, including a few rarely emulated ones such as Windows CE, and you can upload your own operating system image.

V86 is similar to the popular PCjs.

release: webServer tool for linux

JS is the language of the web. But afaik, Quickjs didn't have a HTTP server module yet, so I did the plumbing and created Mongoose-qjs.

Did you know that the 'NT' in Windows NT stood for "Nine Ten"?

The intended core platform for the OS was the then-expected Intel i910 RISC processor, which was to be the rebranded moniker for the i860 that can be found in the wild.

It never came to be due to the i860s terrible handling of context switching -- a capability that a CPU for a multitasking, multiuser workstation OS must be able to do very_efficiently. The i860 wasn't.

** EDIT: Several have pointed to sources indicating differently that NT stood for N10, which was the codename for the i860, so -- N10, N-Ten > NT.
