Here is some news that is bound to take you all by surprise. Windows 98 is now running on Nokia N95! Would you really believe that? We already have Windows 3.1 running on the Nokia N95. Then there was this very recent thing about iPhone running Mac OS 7. Just look how much progress the mobile industry has made in the last few years. These days, more and more smartphones are coming into the market, each one more powerful than the other, each one capable of running more powerful platforms.

Now it is the turn of good old Windows 98 running on a Nokia N95 and Nokia N98. Both these phones are part of the bloody high-end Nokia Nseries too.

This post will give you folks an exact idea of just how powerful today’s mobile phones really are. We hear and see a lot of changes in the mobile market each and every day. This time round, though, we are ourselves shell shocked. The latest is that the Apple iPhone is being employed as a surrogate computer for the Apple computer OS, better known as System 7 or Mac OS 7. A development team that calls itself that MacOS iPhone Project, has now made the iPhone run the Mac OS 7 run within itself.

This project has been underway for quite some time now. The development team had gone through some trouble trying to get System 7’s mouse-cursor compatible with iPhone’s touchscreen. Now, it has been successful in bringing the full Mac OS 7 functionality to the handheld, including many interesting applications such as – would you believe it – MacPaint. Once the entire procedure and the required tweaking has been done, this will be opened out to the public as well.
