A PC Emulator in Javascript - Run Linux In Your Web Browser

Fabrice Bellard has developed a PC emulator (Virtual machine) using Javascript that runs a version of Linux in your web browser.

You can run a variety of Linux commands in the emulator. Since its initial release on May 16 2011, this project has seen some feature additions namely - a clipboard to exchange data between the VM and the host, and support for Opera and Internet Explorer apart from Firefox.

The clipboard is seen as /dev/clipboard in the emulator. You can use this clipboard to easily transfer data from your host machine to the virtual machine (and vice versa) as explained in the FAQ.

Do check it out. It is really a cool demonstration of the power of Javascript.
