0 PyX Posted March 12, 2005 Share Posted March 12, 2005 Well after trying CherryOS for more than 2 hours, I realized how much bug it had and how slow it was. THat is not what I'd call 80% and I have a really decent computer, aka Athlon XP 3000+, 200 GB HD, 512 MB RAM (okay, that's my pc's weakness, BUT STILL, I find 512 MB of ram great for today's uses), ATI Radeon 9800 pro. It runs equally as fast or slower than PearPC and sometimes I cannot even start Mac OS X, it says "Error in Profile". No sound support, I don't know how to search in my computer from Mac OS X, etc etc. Basically... they have MUCH work to do to first get rid of the open-source projects' source codes, to get rid of the bugs and to make it faster. I don't think we'll see a good CHerryOS before next year, so PearPC is still in the game and it's now or never that they should continue their development. :yes: Competition is always welcomed (even if CherryOS is PearPC... as long as CherryOS will exist, competition will be there) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/294414-cherry-os-trial-available/page/19/#findComment-585604253 Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Julius Caro Posted March 13, 2005 Share Posted March 13, 2005 No, if Apple sues, it's because CherryOS is in breach of OSX's EULA, which specifically states that OSX can only legally be run on Apple hardware (or at least that's what I've been told...sue me if I'm wrong). CherryOS is like the Napster of the emulation world. 585587866[/snapback] mmm I guess the one who would break OSX's EULA would be the users who installs OSX on a PC, not CherryOS itself. Anyway... P2P apps. are always faulty when their users trade copyrighted things with them... so, yeah, you're right :p Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/294414-cherry-os-trial-available/page/19/#findComment-585610058 Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Toxicfume Veteran Posted March 13, 2005 Veteran Share Posted March 13, 2005 Ok, we have established that many of you think CherryOS is a copy of PearPC under a different interface. Now, can we please get into something else? Like talking about bugs, product updates, specs, speeds, etc, about CherryOS?I for one, need help. When using CherryOS, I got to the point in the OS X installation where you are asked to select a usable volume to install it too, but am not shown any places to install it (its blank). Why? 585603159[/snapback] Why not talk about "bugs, product updates, specs, speeds, etc," about PearPC? Why talk about a program by a company that totally ripped off an open source project and then charge 50 bucks for it? That is just beyond me. Or did you actually go and buy CherryOS? Boycott MXS.

0 Deciever Posted March 14, 2005 Share Posted March 14, 2005 o0.....I think some of you people need to watch a movie called "Anti-Trust".... Also if I was PearPC since they have been able to prove he stole their code, I would simply see if and what code improvements they have made to it and simply incorporate it into theirs, after all it is THEIR project and ANY modification to THEIR program belongs to them under their GPL I am sure. Second what kind of court could CherryOS bring PearPC to? CherryOS: Umm judge they stole our code! PearPC: We can prove they stole the code from us and our GPL protects us from people like CherryOS CherryOS: $h!7 Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/294414-cherry-os-trial-available/page/19/#findComment-585613603 Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Prodak Posted March 14, 2005 Share Posted March 14, 2005 does this work with mac os 10.4 (tiger)?? Or only with mac os x 10.3 panther? i have a cd of 10.4 and i cant get it to install ! 585603505[/snapback] I want to ask exactly the same, I got MacOS 10.4 DVD, and the image, I tried to install but It wont let me. In the FAQ it says it only supports 10.0 - 10.3 I hope they release a new version soon with support for 10.4, I really want to try the MacOS to see what is all about. :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/294414-cherry-os-trial-available/page/19/#findComment-585616017 Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 MMU Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 (edited) "The pits in CherryOS" http://www.drunkenblog.com/drunkenblog-archives/000501.html -Updated 2005.03.15 "There's been a lot of buzz about Cherry OS lately -- since they started actually selling their product -- but there are some real pits in Cherry OS, and the people behind it (MXS), that aren't getting enough attention. This isn't about nitpicking marketing claims, we're going to be breaking down some really uncool stuff involving taking GPL-based code from PearPC (among other projects) and completely false performance claims being used to get people to hand over their cash."... Also, Daniel Foesch, PearPC AltiVec developer, has updated his code to thoroughly trounce any speed claim made by CherryOS :yes:. http://starport.dnsalias.net/index.php?show=article&id=348 Daniel also interviewed CherryOS "programmer" Arben Kryeziu by phone (prepare to amazed at how blatant this company is) :angry: : http://starport.dnsalias.net/index.php?show=article&id=351 Edited March 16, 2005 by MMU Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/294414-cherry-os-trial-available/page/19/#findComment-585622504 Share on other sites More sharing options...
