CollabVM was specifically inspired by Twitch Plays Pokemon and the website [https://web.archive.org/web/20150210201435/https://www.manymo.com/ Manymo], which allowed users to run an Android virtual machine in a web browser, but is no longer available.

CollabVMBrowser 0.01Computer, (originallythe namedprecursor "Browserto Computer")CollabVM, started in July 2014, as a fun experiment. Instead of a virtual machine, it ran in an actual, physical machine running Windows 95, with a basic node.js script to simply connect to a VNC Server that was running with no password. This version did not have turns - if there were more than 2 users on the VM at once, they would have to use the chat to collaborate or try and fight for control. The page in question was also not hosted on [http://computernewb.com/ Computernewb]. The project was later reconfigured to connect to a remote QEMU session due to people constantly turning the machine off, closing the VNC Server, or destroying the machine. It was fairly unpopular, with only around 5-6 unique people controlling it every 2* weeks or so. The project was closed off in November 2014, but would later be reborn in February 2015.
