Mini vMac Ported to the iPhone; Allows you to Run Classic Mac Plus OS
If you thought only Windows 3.1 can be run on a mobile phone then you are mistaken. iPhone Hacker, Jesus Alvarez has recently ported Mini vMac; an open source Mac Plus emulator to the iPhone. For the nostalgic Apple fanboys the news gets even better as you can also install...

Running System v0.97 and v1.1 again is a blast - super fast on these modern processors. Haven't tried System 7, yet :) mini vMac also allows you to shrink the screen to fit the iPhone screen (orig Mac 512x342).
Only thing I don't like about it is that the cursor directly follows you finger - at that size, it can be hard to see what you're clicking on. Having something like a Jaadu cursor, which moves relative to your finger movements would be better, I think (or at least have the option to switch between the two modes).
Oh, and a nice feature is when you suspend the machine by pressing the Home button, the app's icon shows the current screen contents :)
