Evidence of just how popular the
Xiaomi M1 is all over China, the
phone seems to be as popular as the iPhone when looking around the
phone users on the bus or subway and the companies Weibo account is thriving, so it is of little
surprise that a modding community have emerged.
This is the first
hack of it's kind we have seen on the
Xiaomi M1 and if the below video is to be believed it allows users to run either
Windows 98 or the still very popular Windows
XP operating system on the Xiaomi virtually as an application!
We're not entirely sure on the technical side of how this M1 owner managed to get the aging Windows platform to run on his Xiaomi
smartphone, or why you would even want to, but the M1's hardware are surely more than up to the job of powering the desktop
OS thanks to it's
dual core 1.2 ghz
CPU and 1GB ram!
