In pearPC even in the cursors you could see that is was lagging or in the status bars as well .. it took several hours to install OSX with it .. with this one I was already into the install rather quickly and the cursor animations were very smooth, although when I would click on the title bar you could see it was slightly laggy, and also if you move your mouse really really quickly you can see it lags slightly .. A hell of a lot better than my experience than PearPC so far.

I'm gonna see if I can get my PearPC image to work on this .. then maybe I won't have to reinstall OSX ..I'll post some screenies if it works

Just running the installer now, I'm pretty sure I can do this legitimately since I have three licenses for Panther, yet only one Mac currently.

I just noticed you can't change the install path. How annoying.

And jesus, this interface is hideous. The icons are far too small for the toolbar, and the images used on the dialogs look like Microsoft Clipart. Not to mention that the green gradient isn't wide enough to cover my 1600x1200 resolution.

I'll take a series of screenshots from install to first usage, and post them later. Right now its taking rather a long time to get past the bootscreen, and find my Panther disc.

EDIT: It doesn''t seem to like DVD discs of Panther, so it seems I'm going to have to resort to installing Jaguar first, then using my upgrade discs. Le sigh.

What CherryOS is not (Disclaimer)

CherryOS will not turn your PC into an Apple computer. Apple computers are some of the fastest com-puters on the market today, and many of the applications designed for Macs require a robust hardware architecture. A software emulator can never recreate the performance of the native Apple hardware. If you are thinking of using Apple video editing software on your PC, CherryOS is not your solution.

What CherryOS is:

CherryOS is the easiest to install PowerPC G4 emulator available. The G4 emulation is fast enough for you to be able to install Apple?s OS X software onto your Windows PC. While your PC will never function as fast as an Apple computer, you will be able to do many of the day-to-day functions such as browse the Internet and receive e-mail.

    • Microsoft admits one of the most crucial Outlook features is currently broken

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      Microsoft admits one of the most crucial Outlook features is currently broken by Sayan Sen Microsoft is making some decent progress when it comes to Windows 11. Recently we have confirmed reports of some rather useful improvements landing in the next version of the OS, 26H2, wherein GPU driver TDR crashes may finally be fixed, plus the company is also allowing users to disable web content on the Search. On the Outlook front though things have not been so rosy. Last month in May we reported several problems affecting basic functionalities on the app. These included a problem where documents would open blank or corrupt themselves. Following that, Quick Steps, a very useful feature, would no longer work correctly, and finally, Microsoft acknowledged a problem wherein images would fail to load up properly inside the email. Microsoft had resolved those bugs later and almost exactly a month after we reported on them, the company has now admitted a new similarly basic issue, this time on Macs. Users recently started noticing that Outlook would no longer display email threads properly as the original message itself was not displayed. An affected user Tsoumpas, C (ngmb) nicely described the problem in a forum post they made on Microsoft's site. They wrote: "Description of the issue: After updating Outlook for Mac [Version 16.110 (26061317)] on 18/6/2026, replying to any email no longer includes the original message in the reply window. Prior to the update, replies correctly contained the original email text below my response. Expected behavior: The original message should be included in the reply, as in previous Outlook versions and according to the configured reply settings. Actual behavior: The reply window contains only a blank composition area (or only my response), with none of the original email text included." Obviously this must be a highly frustrating for users as noted by several in that thread. The post, at the time of writing, has also been upvoted by more than 40 users indicating that is a fairly widespread bug. Thankfully Microsoft seems to have acknowledged the problem right around that time as it opened a new issue on its official website. In the support article, the company recommends switching to Outlook for Mac from the legacy app, where the problem appears to be happening.
