Port the OS X GUI (Aqua only, mind you) to Linux as an X11 client. Include an emulator so Linux can run Mac apps.
(I would pay Steve Jobs money for a package like this.)-- galukalock, Jan 28 2003 Mac OS X for Intel http://www.osx86project.orgRun tiger from your own Intel PC [ixnaum, Aug 26 2005] Rods, could you run Lindows on your iBook then?-- waugsqueke, Jan 28 2003 Yet another set of annos' where I need Babelfish.-- RayfordSteele, Jan 28 2003 Question for [Rods]: just because *you* won't use it, why would you vote against it?-- galukalock, Jan 29 2003 But wouldn't you like to be able to run iTunes or some other such legendarily easy-to-use program on your Linux PC?
Besides, the emulator is NOT the main part of the idea; the idea is to port the GUI of OS X to Linux.-- galukalock, Jan 29 2003 Just what Linux needs, another competing GUI.-- kropotkin, Jan 30 2003 Sounds good to me.-- galukalock, Jan 30 2003 Hm, what do I yell when my whole Bingo card is covered?-- Monkfish, Jan 30 2003 If the scenario you described happens soon, I'd probably buy it. (Unless it's open-source.)-- galukalock, Feb 01 2003 I sure hope that if it ever happens, it's open-source!-- BuckWilliams, Apr 02 2003 That's what I meant. If it was open-source, it'd be better, and free.-- galukalock, Apr 02 2003 This is more of a request :-)
But ya it would be nice. Although you can do a variation of you are saying - today. Now you don't need a Mac to run Mac OS X. See the Mac OS X for Intel link.-- ixnaum, Aug 26 2005 random, halfbakery
