Letting the World Know : Comment 151 of 216 | ANN.lu |
Posted by DaveW on 20-Nov-2002 15:20 GMT | In reply to Comment 132 (Frodon): "It is also possible that in the future other boxes may be added allowing compatibility with applications from other operating systems. Possibilities here are to add Unix / Linux and BeOS application compatibility."
Compatibility. This does not mean to those who took it that way ( and yes I was
being sarcastic before ) that you would take your Mandrake 9.1 install CD and install it onto an M-Box but that there would be an address space and scheduler
space that would have a compatibility layer ( read API ) to allow applications written for other OS to be ported.
This is always fun because those building those layers forget half the job and it tends not to work ... out of the box. Oh year and the half they forget are semantics.
So more Cygwin and less VMWare. |
