A Great Moment in Hackintosh History: Running OS X on a Phone

January 31st, 2010

No, not iPhone OS. I’m talking full-fledged OS X, 10.3 Panther to be exact, running on a Nokia N900. Toni Nikkanen has done it, becoming the first person to run OS X on a phone, using PearPC and a lot of patience. It takes about 90 minutes to start up and it runs like molasses, but dammit if it isn’t cool.
