Sony PSP Running Mac OS:

Neisha Stadelhofer came up with a really twisted hack to run Mac OS on a Sony PSP. She’s running vMac under PSPBochs – in other words, a 680×0 emulator running under an x86 emulator.

Another look at Opera:

Like a lot of people, I tried Opera after they released it as freeware. At first I didn’t like it because of its quirkiness, but I’m now starting to reconsider. I’ve even been using Opera as my default browser for a few days.
