DOS Emulator In and Out of App Store

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the going-for-hte-record dept.

gent01 writes "A company called Fast Intelligence got DOSBox running on iOS and dubbed it iDOS. It's been stuck in review for the app store for some time. Evidently the iDOS app was in the app store this morning, but it has already been taken down."

    Any app I build in the future will be created on a droid powered device first. I have learned the hard way to shoot for the lowest performing platform first as it is nearly impossible to port the other direction.

    The difference between Nazi Germany and Soviet Russia - lets see.....

    Mass executions of anyone the leaders didn't like? Yup, both groups did that.

    Government control of industries and most all businesses? Yup, both groups did that.

    Absurd laws limiting behavior with extreme punishments (often death)? Yup, both groups did that.

    Projects to brainwash children into mindlessly following government ideology? Yup, both groups did that.

    Crap...I forgot, I was supposed to be making a list of DIFFERENCES....hm, looks like I couldn't find any other than one was in Russia and the other was in Germany.
