INB4 MULTITASKING OMG

No but seriously man, OS4 will be out in the fall. Can't wait that long? And while yes, it theoretically COULD run Flash, it'd probably be a pretty goddamn old version considering the OS. Also, does anyone know if this setup can access wi-fi in Win95? We don't, so how would we even know if we could GET Flash on it in the first place? So yeah cool, multi-task some 15 year old apps, and maybe or maybe not access the internet to get an old balls version of Flash. Awesome argument sport.]]>Apr 12th 2010 7:37AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/12/windows-95-on-ipad-completes-bill-gates-vision-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/12/windows-95-on-ipad-completes-bill-gates-vision-video/Why wouldn't it? You think Apple put some kind of magic multitasking detector in it that automagically detects anything that looks like multitasking and then shoots down the process?

Anyway, this is running as 1 process, which is an x86 emulator. Since any process can run as many threads as it wants, or emulate multiple threads (like this thing): yes, it can still multitask, FWIW.

Then we'd definitely get Flash... oh right. Maybe next month eh?

A better idea would be to get an app like a VNC app that only streams down active window content and scales the active window to the phone display resolution. This way you just patch into a browser running on a server with Flash and then you can play your stupid Farmville kid's game for kids even though you're a grown up.]]>Apr 12th 2010 9:45AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/12/windows-95-on-ipad-completes-bill-gates-vision-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/12/windows-95-on-ipad-completes-bill-gates-vision-video/Apr 12th 2010 10:38AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/12/windows-95-on-ipad-completes-bill-gates-vision-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/12/windows-95-on-ipad-completes-bill-gates-vision-video/Apr 12th 2010 11:31AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/12/windows-95-on-ipad-completes-bill-gates-vision-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/12/windows-95-on-ipad-completes-bill-gates-vision-video/Apr 12th 2010 11:34AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/12/windows-95-on-ipad-completes-bill-gates-vision-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/12/windows-95-on-ipad-completes-bill-gates-vision-video/Apr 12th 2010 11:57AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/12/windows-95-on-ipad-completes-bill-gates-vision-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/12/windows-95-on-ipad-completes-bill-gates-vision-video/Apr 12th 2010 12:36PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/12/windows-95-on-ipad-completes-bill-gates-vision-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/12/windows-95-on-ipad-completes-bill-gates-vision-video/

multitasking will be native in a few months which is fine for most since it means Apple might work on pesky things like the wifi issues first.

as for Flash. if places like video sites weren't so quick to do HTML5 or free apps it might be a problem. Even games like Farmville already have ipad apps in progress. Flash ads, no loss there. And full Flash sites will probably jump on the bandwagon as the number of ipads sold rises. So by the time the native windows/android tablets finally hit the market, the point will be moot]]>Apr 23rd 2010 2:44PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/12/windows-95-on-ipad-completes-bill-gates-vision-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/12/windows-95-on-ipad-completes-bill-gates-vision-video/Apr 12th 2010 7:31AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/12/windows-95-on-ipad-completes-bill-gates-vision-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/12/windows-95-on-ipad-completes-bill-gates-vision-video/
