|
|
<p>All software applications have hardware requirements (and
|
|
sometimes have software requirements as well). BrowzOS is no different, except
|
|
that the software requirements for BrowzOS are very dynamic and, at times, may
|
|
differ depending on the way it is used. Even though this project has been
|
|
created and tested using a computer with 512 MB of memory and a 1.6 GHz
|
|
microprocessor, there is nothing that dictates the absolute minimum and absolute
|
|
maximum hardware requirements for any computer.</p>
|
|
<p>These are the basic requirements for any client computer user
|
|
who wishes to run BrowzOS from the internet:</p>
|
|
<ul><li>Any computer with internet access and any client-side operating
|
|
system (i.e.: GNU/Linux, Windows, Mac OS X, etc.)</li>
|
|
<li>Any mainstream web browser with the ability to run web applets
|
|
and scripts (i.e.: Internet Explorer 6 and over, Mozilla 1.7 and over, Mozilla
|
|
Firefox, Safari, Netscape 6 and over, etc.)</li>
|
|
<li>Software drivers (i.e.: ActiveX controls and/or web browser
|
|
plug-ins) which enable mainstream web browsers to properly run certain web
|
|
applets and scripts (examples are Java, Flash, Shockwave, JavaScript, Visual
|
|
BASIC script, etc.)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>These are the basic requirements for any computer user
|
|
who wishes to run BrowzOS from the hard drive:</p>
|
|
<ul><li>Any computer with internet access and any client-side operating
|
|
system (i.e.: GNU/Linux, Windows, Mac OS X, etc.)</li>
|
|
<li>Any file archiving program or file compression program with (at
|
|
least) ZIP file read/write access</li>
|
|
<li>Any mainstream web browser with the ability to run web applets
|
|
and scripts (i.e.: Internet Explorer 6 and over, Mozilla 1.7 and over, Mozilla
|
|
Firefox, Safari, Netscape 6 and over, etc.)</li>
|
|
<li>Software drivers (i.e.: ActiveX controls and/or web browser
|
|
plug-ins) which enable mainstream web browsers to properly run certain web
|
|
applets and scripts (examples are Java, Flash, Shockwave, JavaScript, Visual
|
|
BASIC script, etc.)</li>
|
|
<li>Software drivers (i.e.: programming language run-time files)
|
|
which enable mainstream operating systems to properly run certain web applets
|
|
and scripts (such as ASP, .NET framework, PHP, SQL, etc.)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>These are the basic requirements for web designers who wish to run BrowzOS
|
|
from a server:</p>
|
|
<ul><li>Any client computer with internet access and any client-side operating
|
|
system (i.e.: GNU/Linux, Windows, Mac OS X, etc.)</li>
|
|
<li>Any file archiving program or file compression program with (at
|
|
least) ZIP file read/write access</li>
|
|
<li>Any SSH and/or FTP client program to access a server across the
|
|
internet</li>
|
|
<li>Any text editor, rich text editor or "what-you-see-is-what
|
|
you-get" editor (such as Frontpage, SciTe, Notepad, Vi, Microsoft Word, etc.)</li>
|
|
<li>Any server computer running server software (like Apache, IIS or
|
|
similar) and any mainstream server operating system (i.e.: FreeBSD,
|
|
Windows Server 2003, etc.)</li>
|
|
<li>Any mainstream web browser with the ability to run web applets
|
|
and scripts (i.e.: Internet Explorer 6 and over, Mozilla 1.7 and over, Mozilla
|
|
Firefox, Safari, Netscape 6 and over, etc.)</li>
|
|
<li>Software drivers (i.e.: ActiveX controls and/or web browser
|
|
plug-ins) for both client computers and servers which enable mainstream web browsers to properly run certain web
|
|
applets and scripts (examples are Java, Flash, Shockwave, JavaScript, Visual
|
|
BASIC script, etc.)</li>
|
|
<li>Software drivers (i.e.: programming language run-time files)
|
|
which enable both mainstream server and client operating systems to properly run
|
|
certain web applets and scripts (like ASP, .NET framework, PHP, SQL, etc.)</li>
|
|
