ZX81 as webserver :-)

compiled it for the Zeddy. And now the Zeddy is online (via a serial
port and SLIP protocol, 9600 baud).
And here it is:

the +3e, I don't know if the odd serial port would hinder it though...

Just accessed the page, thats so cool, I love that idea.
Perhaps as has been mentioned earlier a +3e or at least a 48k/128k speccy
server? I'm sure someone did a Spectrum version, mind like a seive me :-)

machines working as a webserver. I presume the Zeddy has something
more than 1K of RAM though. Still, now we have an answer for that
question in the annual (quarterly?) flame war.

In 1986 I added an ECB bus interface to my Zeddy. I took a "standard"
card (made by Rolf Dieter Klein for the "NDR-Kleincomputer") with ECB
bus and put it into my Zeddy. That card is equipped with a SIO-0 (2
serial channels) and a PIO. I added also a CTC as flexible baudrate-
generator for the SIO.

BTW: My Zeddy is equipped with 600 KB static ram (512 KB used as
ramdisk: drive R:).

Nice one, fantastic!
No doubt you could now sell your kit to Ebuyer for hundreds of pounds.

. They are already using two Speccy 48s for web serving...

Corks! That really is rather splendid, Sir...
Now, how come the Web server at work needs a gajillion Gb of RAM to
work, when this little marvel is up and running? Tch, eh?

Much like the aforementioned web server at work (you're fired! Gerard's
Boss).. Eep!
Toodle-pip!

the idea of expansion, connecting to the internet, running a
webserver, etc. and at the same time most ZX Spectrum users say it
takes away the soul of the machine, 'we have PCs to do that', etc.
etc.
Someone has contacted me and offered to build the first Ethernet
interface (and lynx-style browser) for the TS2068. Hopefully we'll
have something similar for the Spectrum in the near future.
I want to take my portable Spectrum with me and connect it to my
windows network. I also want to go to a cafe, open my ZX Spectrum
laptop and check my e-mail, browse css, use ftp, etc. It will happen.

I'm all in favour of developing this stuff for the Speccy. The problem
is that connecting to the internet in a useful manner is far trickier
than setting up a web server. You need a proper file-system with a
swap space in order to display a page in HTML given that many HTML
pages are now bigger than the available address space on the Z80. I
think the best bet is probably in the future development of ResiDOS.
It certainly is possible on the Z80 since the MSX can do it with UZIX
(and it has a graphical browser).

Hey, hey, 16K; what does that get you today? To coin a phrase.

And I want a case like this to put it in:

Just thinking about it makes me go all funny inside. Eat 8-bit dirt,

Fantastic! You know, I remember thinking at the time the ZX81 would make
a good portable computer if only they'd hurry up and invent flat screens. :)
