Contiki for Internet-enabled Apple II 43
indyV writes "Most of you probably remember the Contiki OS which
previously have been used to Internet-enable both the Commodore
64 and the 8-bit
Atari. This
video shows the brand new Apple II Contiki port in action, booting up on an Apple IIe
and surfing to www.apple2.org. The network connection was made with a
specially crafted Ethernet adapter."

Too bad that's the model I have, I'll still have to setup serial transfer if I want to upload stuff on this...

I always felt that it was better as "//e". But then again, this is a totally geeked out topic, and I might as well get back to my life now :-)

The new eZ80 acclaim has an ethernet port and TCP/IP stack. An other option would be to use the AVR version of Contiki and and AVR chip to hack one. Ues it would be easier to just use a pc and a null modem cable but not nearly as much fun.

Some people enjoy this kind of thing. Let them have their fun. I'm sure there's something equally dorky that you enjoy.
Personally, I get a kick out of programming an 8-bit processor with a whopping 256-byte address space. It's a thrill to get anything working.
