Do you remember the HTC Shift? It has been with us since mid 2007, back in its days it was called names we barely ever come across today: an ultra mobile computer, a pocket PC and indeed a turning point in mobile device industry. Now though, rather unexpectedly, it has been given a new live. Well, it would have been given one if the hardware wasn’t so hopelessly outdated, but the news is that guys from xda developershave managed to get Mac OS X 10.5.6 up and running on HTC Shift. So can you with the help of their blog, an applicable OS build and an external hard drive or a flash. The thing that staggers me is how much technology of today is tighten up to money rather than progress. Anyway, question that is on minds of masses today is whether Apple themselves will ever ship their tablet running their desktop operating system or not. Given HTC Shift running Mac OS X I’d say they would if they will ever want to.
