In the middle of a regular session of googling for some vintage hardware info, I ran across a rather unique and notable site: The Mac Plus Web Server. Clicking that link will take you to a rather small site that is served on a 17+ year old Mac Plus, entirely from floppy disk. And not only is there text, but also graphics and a QuickTime movie as well. Not the fastest site you will ever have encountered, but an impressive effort. While I do put my Mac Plus to use every so often (frequently, of late), it has not been used in such a novel way.
