Games We all know that PSP users who haven't upgraded their firmware beyond 1.50 are able to run third party hobby applications as opposed to just commercial ones. This community has ported a large number of emulators to the PSP able to run almost every console game ever released. Apparently, someone also ported the Basilisk-II 68k emulator which allows users to run a full copy of Mac OS 8.1 on it. Video here (since that video was made a new version of the port allows for a much faster runtime).

Why Mac OS 8

Given that this is pretty cool, it doesn't seem to have much of a purpose to run Mac OS 8 on a PSP. Did he even have any space to copy much else? I couldn't quite tell what he was copying there.

Beyond playing oregon trail it doesn't seem to have much applicibility, nothing on Mac OS 8 made me say "Wow! I want that", even at the time when it came out. Not trying to wine or anything it's just more like ok we can do it, now what?
