Browsing the WWW on a 1980s IBM PC using MicroWeb

Do you ever sit at your 1981 vintage IBM PC and get the urge to pop onto that newfangled WWW' to stay up to date on all the goings-on in the world? Fret not, because Al's Geek Lab has you covered with a new video, which you will unfortunately have to watch on a device that was made at the very least in the late 1990s. What makes this feat possible is a miniscule web browser called MicroWeb, created by jhhoward, that will happily run on an 8088 CPU or compatible, without requiring any fiddling with EMS or similar RAM extensions.

Anything is possible, if you just want it hard enough.
