Run Mac OS X Under Linux

Posted by pudge on from the there-must-be-a-good-reason dept.

A user writes, "Just saw at penguinppc that Mac-On-Linux can now run Mac OS X. Nothing like having Mac OS X running on a VT to switch to and from." Cool, but ... why?

    So now I can run MacOS X running Virtual PC running Linux running MOL running MacOS X running a Commodore 64 emulator running M.U.L.E. What a deal!

    Or just go recursive: MacOS X->VPC->Linux->MOL->(repeat forever).

      And this is particularly good why exactly?

      You live in a cold, quiet place and prefer a hot place filled with the whine of fans?

      If you are trying to make a "lots of processing power for not much cash" point, please be more specific ;)

      If you are just trolling, you could at least have mentioned something exceptionally powerful ;)
