I am currently working with Jean-Marc, who used to frequent
this group, on getting PDOS-generic to work on an Android
smartphone as a native ARM executable instead of the
current Bochs emulation.
Basically turning a smartphone into a really cheap
32-bit MSDOS PC from the point of view of the user
and C programmer.
I can buy an external USB keyboard for about US$2.
I can buy a new Android smartphone with OTG support
for about US$40.
It hasn't quite passed proof of concept yet, but it's pretty close.
You can preview it here:

Many phones are 64-bit now. Cheap ones probably are still

32-bit, but I am not sure how long this will last.

the code above is doing this: it runs code as native ARM Linux
executable.

pdos-generic posits an "ideal bios"
and then uses that.
The ideal bios can be provided by an executable
running under another os, treating the
other os as a glorified bios.
The pdos os remains the same regardless.
It makes the os portable.
Then as of a week ago or whatever there
was a new concept added.
Applications themselves can be run
directly under the bios, not requiring pdos.
