Someone on youtube[0] suggested we use (something like) KolibriOS[1] in a vm as a kind of webbrowser. Then we can have snappy effective desktop apps for everything cross platform(!)
The 12 MB OS looks surprisingly mature. We are so conditioned for bloat that with each click I'm surprised how fast it responds. I don't remember ever being surprised by the same thing twice in a row but here it stays surprising how everything opens in the next frame even on very poor hardware.
Besides from a vm I read there is a synery[3] client for it[4]. I've used crappy pc's on extra screens and having a dedicated machine for a single application is fun, useful and it makes old stuff useful. You can run heavy applications on the main computer, it's unimportant the extra cant do it.
