Windows 8 ain’t fussy: runs on Macs, Surface, 128MB RAM, banana peel (videos)
Downloaders of the Windows 8 Developer Preview have been proving their mettle the best way they know how: by getting it to run on systems it was never really intended for. Brent and the folks at Codesnack win the Real Utility trophy for their successful Boot Camp installs. Josh Blake gets the Damn I Look Good By Candlelight trophy for making the OS run on the MS Surface in his living room. Meanwhile, Marcin Grygiel has awarded himself the I’m HARDCORE!!! title for somehow getting it to run on a PC with just 128MB. Treat yourself to some intimate video evidence after the break.

T-Mobile G2 is overclocked past 100%; Doc Brown approves
The T-Mobile G2 has been overclocked to an astonishing 1.9 GHz. Read it slowly, it’s not a typo — I read it two or three times myself to be sure of what I was seeing. Now to be clear, if you are a normal, well-balanced person who likes your G2 and uses it every day you probably won’t want to do this one. On the other hand, if you’re like us, and you smile when the magic blue smoke comes out the back of a phone (then cry when you have to tell your wife what you did), hit the source link and give it a try. Anyone still think the G2′s CPU is slow?
And for the love of all things holy, share some screenshots in the forums. [XDA-Developers via Android Police]

Tonight, live on the Android Central Podcast, we unbox the Evo 4G
You guys want us to do an unboxing of the Sprint Evo 4G? Fine. We’ll do an unboxing. And we’ll do it live, in living color, with stereophonic sound. Maybe snakes will fly out. Maybe it’ll be a gruesome scene. We don’t know. We haven’t actually looked yet (though we have a pretty good idea of what’s in there). Anyhoo, check back tonight at 7 p.m. EDT, and we’ll give you what you want.
