Does it make any sense to think of PPC emulation??
« on: March 10, 2009, 01:48:10 PM »

Hi all,

After a routine web scanning under Amiga keyword, I found this: PearPC.

Is it ever possible to run AOS4 on some virtual layer PC?  I'm just curious because I would get it ASAP to try it out because I still gave myself a couple of months to wait for a MacMini PPC version.

Was: Mac Mini PPC running MorphOS 2.4
Now: Amiga Forever 2010 with AmiKit and AmigaSYS
Not used: Icaros Desktop 1.2 (reason: no wifi)
Planned soon: an OS4 system
Shortly then: a MOS notebook (wifi is a must-have)

One of Piru's friends has MOS running on QEMU... but honestly, if you are programming the PPC AmigaOS clones... then you have the source code... so you can just as easily recompile your code for x86 AROS if you wanted to... so other than for the geek value of running an Alternative OS, there is little point...


I don't I get it.  I'm sorry but as said elsewhere, my knowledge on emulation is just basic, let alone multiple platforms.
