manuleka 0 Report post Posted October 12, 2011 just curious if anyone tried running any Apple OS on Virtual Machine? in specific VirtualBox? I know Apple only created it's OS to run only on Apple hardwares but would be awesome if one can run on Virtual Machines for testing and fiddling around Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Apple should have a FREE/Light version of it's OS for people to test, it might assist in fueling in more customers, not that they need more from their current success in the i-gadgets Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In the current industrial world, virtualization arises as a necessary mean of optimizing system resources.So, some "virtual" mac servers will have to arrive on the market.However, for most of needs, the customers will not have to be convinced, they know that they need a mac, and they will buy one. No need to test in order to be convinced.If you are not a mac user, too bad, we are sorry for you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
