    Now all they need to do is make a psp emulator for windows and the cycle shall be complete.

    Emulate x86 on a psp running windows and then emulate a psp on it and so on!

    Although it may cause one of those universe destroying events.
    Perhaps Cthulu will rise by running them recursively.

      You are so first half of 2005. The hip thing to ask is whether it runs OSX/x86 these days...
