Running Windows on iPad Air 2

Hackers like to install Windows on Apple gadgets. Sometimes they play Fallout 2 on the iPad Air 2 running Windows 98. Sometimes they decide to install Windows on iPad of earlier version, for example, Windows 1.0.

Anyways, most users cannot run Windows on iPad Air 2 with iOS 9 because this task is not that simple. It takes knowledge and hacking is not the easiest science in the tech world. Jules got Windows 1.0 version and managed to bring this old platform to the ‘fruit’ iPad Air 2 model. He succeeded!

Windows on iPad Air 2

Some history facts. Windows 1.0 is a very old version of popular Microsoft computer platform. The company unveiled it in 1985, this was years ago. Seeing that old release alive in 2016 is rather interesting, especially if this Windows PC version is running on the new iPad Air device.

Another curious fact. The first computers that were running early Windows versions were huge. They were of the size of a mini-fridge! Of course, users had to patient because everything was so slow compared to modern versions and computers. The thin and small iPad Air that has Windows 1.0 on it cannot boast its popular features and functionality but it’s an interesting experience becase this is a modern gadget that can work without a power source for about 10 hours [by the way, iPhone 6s Plus can also run Windows 98]. Jules managed to emulate Windows 1.0 with DOSPAD so this very same iPad Air 2 is actually running current iOS 9 firmware.

There are no details about how to install older Windows platform on iPad Air 2 with or without jailbreak. This is just a fun experiment that wows users who still remember those two-decade old platforms and computers.

T Mobile Video Throttling Issue Worries EFF

iPhone users who are using T-Mobile network can experience T Mobile video throttling problem. It has been noted by EFF that found out that the network’s Binge On technology throttles all videos users watch.

The EFF [Electronic Frontier Foundation] had to react and it put the carrier’s claim to test. It tested the Binge On option and announced that the mobile operator indeed throttles HTML5 videos to 1.5Mbps no matter if the network is capable of delivering faster speeds or not.

Some Unique iPhone 6s Features Are Most Useless

What are the most useless iPhone features customer pay for but don’t get full advantage of? There are numerous things Apple adds to its smartphones and all these extras surely attract new consumers who are eager to pay for what they end up not even using.

Thus the unique iPhone 6s features are its 3D Touch options. It is very unique because it is bigger than just the fingertouch screen. Apple surely pointed to this unique iPhone 6s spec while advertsing it before the official release in September.

Though Apple Watch users know this feature that gives access to iPhone menus and shortcuts depending on the strength of your push.

Users do like shortcuts however the 3D Touch can only save you a couple of taps. It does everything your iPhone can do without it so it brings no innovation if looking at it this way. Besides, not all applications support the 3D Touch so it becomes useless in many programs. Besides, you can come across iPhone 6s Touch screen not responding bug.

The iOS giant promises that this is just the beginning of its new 3D Touch life. We all remember how Apple Maps failed when they first replaced Google Maps on iPhone. Now this program has been updated and improved and offers some interesting features that help users in their everyday life. Who knows, maybe the 3D Touch could also becomes handy in the future.
