"What is this?

Yes, it's true. I've managed to run Windows 95 and Linux on the PSP. I've done it by porting the excellent open source x86 emulator Bochs."

Does this work? Must be slow as hell though

I imagine if they can get SNES emulators to run on it, Windows/Linux would also be possible. Linux I can see.... but Windows?

Normal bashing of MS aside... Why would you want to? Isn't the whole point of buying a PSP is to use it to play games?

Yes, it works, but it takes it forever to boot. They got an Apple OS to run also. An older one, not OS X

Interesting, but not very useful. It's more like a "Because I can" type deal.
