   yes the nokie winphones was not good at all, i think the idea was from   
   microsoft to have common devices running windows 11 :=)   
      
   it have always failed with there basic compiler that is used to compile it on   
   commodore 64   
      
   put comal cartrige in commodore 64, it runs faster, sadly microsoft have   
   always doing incompatible codings for non portable code, all basic roms on   
   commodore computers is not even basic portable

   usb-c port hook a hdmi monitor there

   yes all possible via apps that support sshd on android, but no root access   
   since google would not allow it
