Do check it out guys!

It has ridiculously low system requirements and is capable of running on the average 2000 era internet cafe machine when internet at home was a rare thing.

The only thing it needs a Blue E icon on the desktop and a theme of Firefox to emulate IE, then only it will be suitable for Cafes.
