Windows 3.1 on S60 dude says 'why stop there,' ups the ante with Win95
Hey, look, it's Windows... mobile. Get it? You know, Windows 95 on a mobile device -- ah, never mind. Point is, the S60 port of DOSBox seems to be doing some really crazy, insane, questionably-useful things for Symbian-powered devices around the world, and when running Windows 3.1 on a 320 x 240 display just doesn't do it for you anymore, you can apparently step up to a harder drug like Windows 95. The video shows good ol' 95 getting demoed on an N82, but given the molasses-like pace of absolutely everything, we'd say this is strictly a for-the-hell-of-it sort of experiment. Translation: there are better ways to run your BBS from the road. Follow the break for video.

What is up with having Hot N Cold by Katy Perry as the song to the video??
In any case, I wonder if the Windows 98 on the N95 is slow as well. He should've put Windows 95 on N95...would've been more apropos!

This only works for DOS-built apps, games and systems.
The next would need to be NT-based.
And, no, there is no possibility that it would at all work for a iphone, mehehe.
This is a deep level of coding required.
