Installing Windows 7 by pear pc on maemo

Hello Rachel,

Maemo is a Debian based Nokia operating system that has become very popular. It was recently reported that Nokia N900 that uses Maemo could run Android in dual boot. It was also reported that Mac OS X 10.3, the Power PC version, could also be able to run on N900 that has got Maemo.

Note that the  Mac OS X is not a native install on N900, but what it runs is PearPC emulator, since it is not actually  a usable implementation, and it is quite slow proof of concept. Windows 7 has not been reported to work with Maemo but maybe it can be possible in the coming days.

Regards,

Carl
