    Tried it on the iPad for a laugh - and it worked! :omg: (Hint: to get the onscreen keyboard you have to tap in the text edit box to the right of the virtual PC screen).

              I could type in some *nix commands, but nothing that required a space. For some reason, the spacebar doesn't do anything. So even navigating to the "dos" directory was impossible. Marc

                            Somewhat suspicious I followed the link...on my Windows Phone 8... It took a while for it to complete its boot process (or whatever you might call that). Then when it was finished I was trying to open my on-screen keyboard to start typing, but fatfingered it and hit something that opened up a version history or something. I pressed the back button and it began the boot process all over again... :doh: I did not quite have the patience to go through that again, so I closed the page and came back here. Maybe I will try it out on my PC in the morning. Soren Madsen

                            took 7s to boot on my linux laptop. tried creating a file in /home/default using `touch` and it complained of a read-only file system. it's neat though. the commands in /usr/bin seem to work, or they would if you had access.

                              It won't work in wp8 it doesn't allow you to run any native elf binary code directly on your CPU (it's completely managed, right??) And the code is x86, not ARM, not even compatible with it. It works in Firefox 4+, IE 9+ and Chrome 12+.

                              There is no native code running on your CPU...it's running in your browser Javascript sandbox. It's a virtual machine written in JS.

                                I think this has been covered somewhere here before, any way I gave it the spin and in the IE10 metro browser boots on 42 seconds.

                                  IE 10 on windows 7 ~8 sec... On windows 8 (non metro) ~6 sec. Metro is a crap offering from Microsoft Mickeysoft!
