See here.

In other words, yes, an x86 emulator running a 680x0 emulator on a handheld gaming console.
Utterly pointless, but great to know someone wanted to give it a shot and made it work.

I'll only be impressed if I see it run 0S 9 running Virtual PC running Windows 98 (running pinball [score; over 6 million])

From the website:
Boot time is approximately 4 hours using default CPU settings.
That's about right from what I remember 7.5 being like on my Centris.
When you were young and your heart was an open book, you used to say "live and let live."
But if this ever changing world, in which we live in, makes you give in and cry, say "live and let die."

There was something very wrong with your Centris then.

I though it wasn't called "MacOS" until 7.6. Before that it was just "System 7.5".

Geeze. 4 hours. I don't know if I would have the patience to wait that long to see if it would work.

The PSP is well... kind of lame. But some of the home brew software out for it makes it kind of fun. Though who really wants to wait for 4 hours for OS 7 to boot. My Classic II doesn`t take that long.
