How about OS 10.5 Lion virtual pc built in, runs like x11 in panther. Lion for the release of the biggest cat. Just in case MacBU slacks off (which is what i think might happen with virtual pc) Your mac runs with the big cats. -----Original Message----- From: Michael Bigley <wakinyan at fuse.net> To: PowerBook G4 Titanium List <Titanium at lists.themacintoshguy.com> Sent: Sun, 19 Oct 2003 19:36:11 -0400 Subject: Re: [Ti] iTunes for Windows is out >All I'm saying here is that the future Mac OS' (s) should be created in >such a way that they would be able to run ALL Windoze programs, thus >giving US, the loyal Mac user community the same advantage that the PC >users have. You want to tell us that it is an unreasonable wish, or that >it can't be done? it is being done now with Virtual PC. And with the Mac BU developing it now, I would say integration will be even tighter... that you expect Windows apps to run on Mac OS without paying more is what is unreasonable. That is a tremendous value add that many of us don't need, so it would be unfair to spread the cost of such integration across all users. I think you will see some sort of trial version or lite version of Virtual PC bundled with new Macs soon... actually they already offer something of sorts, with the new version of Office "Pro" including VPC and Apple often offers discounts with purchase of a new system.
