Now, there’s clearly some logic in trying out Google’s shiny new open source Android OS on your N810 so you can get an idea of what it’ll be like. It’s also easy to understand why you might want to coax one into running Debian for a bit of OpenOffice and Firefox 3 action. But Windows 3.1? Really?

Retro rascal John Mason hasn’t been put off by naysayers, however, and has loaded up Windows 3.1 on his N810 so he can party like it’s 1992.

If you can’t see any wrong in this, then to emulate his feat first you’ll need a copy of DosBox and then head on over to this forum post for a full rundown on how to get it up and running. Just remember, you can get Minesweeper for other platforms now.
