SpecOps Labs offers $10,000 to Emulator Developers

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the keep-em-emulated dept.

mparaz writes "SpecOps Labs, the makers of the "David" Windows emulator previously accused of ripping off WINE, are offering $10,000 to a team who can build a Windows XP emulator in 15 days. " This whole thing reads really strangely to me.

    "Why would they be offering $10000 to emulator developers?"

    My guess is, they don't expect any takers, and they are counting on that in order to say "see, it can't be done!"

    I have no idea why anyone would want to do that. But they can't seriously believe they have established the motivation properly.
