Son of Hook Posted October 13, 2004 Share Posted October 13, 2004 (edited) _DOM_ Very likely. Especially after looking at the [H]ardForums (his posts are edited earlier today to resemble nothing) I'd say you're right on the money. Too bad; if this was an actual product, it would really be nice. Edited October 13, 2004 by Fanon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xmr Posted October 13, 2004 Share Posted October 13, 2004 Why surprised? That is where wireless networking began. 584726334[/snapback] Well no, it wasn't where wireless networking as we know it began. It was where ethernet was born. It's also where Ethernet began. 584726647[/snapback] :) They developed the ethernet protocol to overcome problems with sending data packets via sat dishes on each campus at the uni of Hawaii.

cherbert Posted October 13, 2004 Share Posted October 13, 2004 I found this link works despite it not being on the front page! http://www.cherryos.com/images/screenshots/9.jpg Hmmm... 1% CPU Usage :blink: Window looks like it has been knocked up in Visual Basic.

Toxicfume Veteran Posted October 13, 2004 Veteran Share Posted October 13, 2004 Okay..this is the latest and the most convincing info I've found regarding this possible mumbo-jumbo: http://wiredblogs.tripod.com/cultofmac/ind...entry_id=479527 and http://www.wired.com/news/mac/0,2125,65323...tw=wn_tophead_1 Both of them are from the same Author of Wired news. I found it via the PearPC forums @ http://forums.pearpc.net But yet again, that doesn't say much..not yet atleast, I'm hoping to hear more.

TheNay Posted October 13, 2004 Share Posted October 13, 2004 Pear PC isn't that bad, I tried it today ;) Like to try CherryOS but no demo :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JK1150 Posted October 13, 2004 Share Posted October 13, 2004 PearPC is great, sure, it's lacking in some areas, but it's amazing we can emulate MacOSX, which most said was impossible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Southern Patriot Posted October 13, 2004 Share Posted October 13, 2004 I found this link works despite it not being on the front page!http://www.cherryos.com/images/screenshots/9.jpg Hmmm... 1% CPU Usage :blink: Window looks like it has been knocked up in Visual Basic. 584727833[/snapback] 1% CPU usage is possible if the emulator is just sitting there idle, or it could be a fluctuation right at the moment when the screenshot was taken.

Like I said in the news post on the main page, this is why they never show the windows taskbar while the OSX desktop is loaded (and both clocks showing).

Detroit Posted October 13, 2004 Share Posted October 13, 2004 So, is it released or not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coolme Posted October 13, 2004 Share Posted October 13, 2004 This was from their web site... To complete the rest of the installation follow along with the Apple Installation Wizard. Please be patient with the Apple OS installation; depending on your system it may take up to 1 or 3 hours to finish installation. Does anyone know how long does it take a G3/G4 to install OS X (10.0+)? I think 1 or 3 hours is a bit long to install OS X on G3/G4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PureEdit Posted October 13, 2004 Share Posted October 13, 2004 It takes 15-20 minutes to install OS X 10.2/3/4 (beta) on my iBook G3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DimSum Posted October 13, 2004 Share Posted October 13, 2004 The 1% CPU usage is the CPU usage by the video encoder, not the utilisation of the system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

efishta Posted October 13, 2004 Share Posted October 13, 2004 I know you're all hopeful that it's a real product but seriously, this is a hoax people. It's an attempt by a video serving company to test their servers. Basically, a headline worthy story for the slashdot crowd that will give them loads and loads of traffic, which is what they wanted. Don't hold your breath is all I have to say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oik Posted October 13, 2004 Share Posted October 13, 2004 The 1% CPU usage is the CPU usage by the video encoder, not the utilisation of the system. 584728499[/snapback] no. the username is VideoEncoder, but the system's cpu usage is 1%. which is, well, impossible.
