All,

 

I have an idea for an https:\\ CoCo GUI web browser.

 

Step 1: Have a Raspberry Pi (or Cloud Server) to open a web page.

Step 2: Have the device in step 1 turn the web page into a simple CoCo 3
16-color byte code image.

Step 3: Transmit the byte code image to the CoCo 3.

Step 4: Have the CoCo 3 display the image.

Step 5: Read the mouse and keyboard.

Step 6: Transmit the mouse and keyboard data to the device in step 1.

Step 7: have the device in step 1 act.

Step 8: Goto step 2

 

If this idea works, then this could open the door to a lower-cost device
than a Chromebook.

 

I do not have time to pursue this idea right now, but if you would like to
try it then go ahead.

 

If you use a Cloud Server, then you should use some encryption. Perhaps an
ESP32 could be used to do the encryption. Or you could use some quick
encryption that the CoCo 3 can handel. Warning, you need to understand the
newer laws conserving encryption. Warning, be very careful to follow the law
when sending messages from one country to another.
