GameBoy Running Windows XP

wow...I never knew they made motherboards, that small.

 

[saltynay]

they're making an even smaller type now called pico itx which is 100mm by 72mm

mini-itx.com - news

 

[b1gapl]

geez....How small, can they possibly get?

 

[saltynay]

can't get much smaller then pico, the chips are too big to fit on a smaller board but the pico has amazing functionality for its size wouldn't you say???

 

[b1gapl]

yea...25w of power at it's peak!

I did read a little bit of the article but i thought when they said you had to hook up a screen to see what your doing that it was only because the GB screen was too small, it still woulda been neet to see what xp looked like on a gb screen.

does that GB have a screen, if it does and someones already said it does sorry i cant be bothered to read everything

 

[b1gapl]

Nope no screen. You just see the components in the gameboy. You have to hook it up, to a monitor.

the bad thing about this idea is that you are running an OS off of a solid state memory device which has limited rewrites. I believe it was calculated that after around 3 months or so of running the memory stick would die

im sorry but where is the skill (apart from putting a memory stick in the cartridge folder)

it would be a million times bettter if it used the original screeen
