When engadget reported about our adventures they jokingly said – but it doesn’t run windows 3.11 yet.
Well who knows if that inspired this guy or not, but sure there is now a report of Windows 3.1 running on an Android device.
Thanks to aDosBox this should be possible across Android devices – including the Archos5 IT. Didn’t expect it to happen that fast. I took a look at bochs but it wouldn’t compile for me. I ignored dosbox for some reason – which is also available for Ångström. Ok what’s next? Surprise me! OS/2? Or at least a video of someone running dosbox and Windows for Workgroups 3.11 on an Archos5 IT?
bootnote: as stated on the adosbox page it currently does not run on devices without a keyboard. Plain dosbox under Ångström works just fine (cf. Spz0′s funny adventures on his A5).
