CherryOS is dead! Long live PearPC!

Posted by timothy on from the now-it's-officious dept.

trygvebw writes "Earlier today, an entry was posted on Arben Kryzeiu's blog, stating that he was stopping development of CherryOS. CherryOS was an application sold by MXS, inc, which was clearly an illegal rip-off of the open-source PowerPC emulator PearPC. CherryOS is dead, long live PearPC!"

  1. And what about VX30? by wan-fu · · Score: 4, Interesting

    The company still hasn't answered any questions about VX30 (possible GPL violation?). Does anyone have news/updates about this?

    Oh yeah, I know - everyone out there who has their certain opinion about me will have their great comment hour right now. Its ok I expect that anyway

    So you should, scum. Code that I wrote for PearPC was found in CherryOS, and you went along with the bullshit that it was only similar because it "ran the apple code".

    You're a liar and a thief.

    Gotta admit calling someone "scum", followed by "liar and copyright infringer" doesn't have the same emotional impact. It is even almost funny.

    To the Anon Coward whose code was inappropriately copied, you have my sympathy.
