using other virtual operating systems

[Craig Mcgee GM]

Hello All, i know you can use veamware player to allow you to run vinux inside windows, which is great! but does anyone know if you can run other operating systems like mack's operating system and others that are out there too?

Thank you,
Take care, Craig

OS X from Mac will run on Intel based microprocessors and as such can run in vbox.  In my opinion, it is a much better way to run that OS than natively loaded on a hard drive on an x586 chip as the firmware in the OS supports  mostly Apple hardware and not the many other hardware used on most laptops and desktops.

Bottom line:  OS would run on my hard drive but without support for wifi.  In vBox it worked - but there are other issues with vBox like video support and screen resolution.

Hello David thank you for that info. how would i get a copy of mac os x which could run on Veamware player like the copy of vinux found at

www.vinuxvirtual.org.uk

Hi Craig, you would have to buy one - Mac OS is not free or
open-source and their hardware although very good quality is
over-priced. The same is true of Windows - you must buy a copy, you
cannot legally download one from the internet. This is the main
advantage of Linux and Vinux because they are open-source and
therefore can be copied and distributed freely.

Dig that crazy beat on the drums: <http://vinux.org.uk>  The best is

Hello Tony, yes i can see your point as vinux is free, which is better. i
think i will probably stick with that as i dont want to be buying all these
operating systems.

[D.J.J. Ring, Jr.]

Hello Craig,

Like most operating systems you would go to a store that sells computers or software.  It costs about $35.00 here in USA.

Hi David, I think that price is for an upgrade, rather than the whole
system - in the UK it seems to be £100 and up for a full version, but
I could be wrong I often am.
