How about OS X compatability instead of WINE
Wouldn't that be easier to do, and probably the games that work on OS X could be more easily ported to Linux. I think that OS X being UNIX based is wery good news for Linux users.

well, an emulator would be kinda missing the point really. OSX is a derivative of BSD, and as such much of the code is already compatible. you can easily run gnome instead of OS X's default Aqua.
|
Ok, i guess some kind of compatability then.
I guess OS X could be a big chance for companies like Loki. |
well, if loki were still in existence :(
|
Well then it's time to launch a bunch of new companies.

"What is Darwin? Darwin is the core of Mac OS X. The Darwin kernel is based on FreeBSD and Mach 3.0 technologies and provides protected memory and pre-emptive multitasking. Darwin runs on PowerPC-based Macintosh computers and a version is also available for x86-compatible computers" -- As swiped from the above url. |
and you've tried installing it on x86? at the moment the intel version is pretty basic by all accounts, and you gotta install it all manually. but then Aqua is utterly amazing, and that'll not be open sourced... so you'll just end up in a situation of running gnome on osx on an x86.... point?

Me try to install OS/X on my PC? You gotta be kidding! I'm quite happy running Linux, thank you :D. So, is Aqua just a window manager for OS/X then?
Does pose a question: If you can install OS/X for x86, could you then run OS/X (Mac) programs natively on x86's? |
