Yesterday I read an article on /. about Cherry OS a new Mac on Windows emulator that claims as much as 80 percent of your PC power in OS X. Their claim goes something like this….
“CherryOS has been tuned for performance. You can expect to get about 80% of your processors power when working in the Apple Environment. For example a 3.2ghz P4 would run as fast as a 800 MHz G4 machine.”
I don’t know about you but an 800MHz G4 is about 25% as fast as a 3.2GHz P4 (checking math). Personally I think its vaporware considering a quick google search of the product gives no valid hits, but the idea I think is great.
I have spent the last week working on all the laptops that we have in the office and trying to come up with a solution for all the viruses that we keep getting infected with, Sasser, MyDoom, Netsky everything. Endusers are idiots. The previous internet administrator was an idiot. Hopefully we will have this new internet domain up and running in the next week or two, and I should be able to finish rolling this image together.
OK back to work, I have some CDs to go burn and some laptops to update.
