I believe I've seen this before(possibly from DexOS? )

Pretty neat thing.. only thing is in my OS there is no support for Java inside of firefox.

It doesn't want to run inside of Chrome (with the latest Java runtime installed) - it loads but then resorts to a grey screen.

Hi,

Very interesting. Just one thing - they make a big point about how fast the emulator is, but what is "fast" relative to? On my home and work computers which are both relatively modern, the emulators are painfully slow.

Considering that it's written in Java....well, then it is kinda fast.
