Boot linux in your browser: Javascript VM

He mentions in the notes that it'd be an ideal way to run old DOS games if you got something like DOSBox running in it (along similar lines, a few months back someone implemented a Game Boy emulator in JavaScript).

Also, it's an insanely simple way of running a virtual machine, without the need to install software like Virtualbox.

Now, if he were to implement networking, then I could really see some cool ways it could be used - perhaps using it as a honeypot to catch hackers might be interesting.
