Nokia N900 Linux Smartphone Running OS X

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the mr-johnson's-dog dept.

Rovaani writes "There is a video floating around of a Nokia N900 smartphone running the full desktop Mac OS X 10.3. From the author, Tomi Nikkanen: 'I believe this makes the N900 the first smartphone ever to run a full version of Mac OS X (at any speed, slow or otherwise). As you can see from the heavily edited video, it took almost 2 hours to reach the "About my Mac..." window. Keep your eye on the time display as that will give you an impression of just how uselessly slow it is.'"

    Could you please elaborate on which parts of 7 use the .NET VM ? Or any non-natively compiled code for that matter ?

    PS Ad Hominem is fail.
