PostPosted: Sun Jun 06, 2004 5:02 pm   Post subject: Contest: Gues that OS!

I know this would be better in the "Contest" forum, but, that one seems to be a little... err, empty. More people will see it here. 8)

I have a set of screenshots. You are to guess the Operating System, but don't think I made it easy. The winner gets 100 Bits. Shocked Wink

Is it a [b]real[b] mac with some foolies to make you think it's windows?
Is it linux w/ KDE tweaked out to look like a Mac showing a Windows partition to make you think it's Windows?
Is it windows disguised as a Mac?
Is it GNOME doing the same thing as above?
Is it Enlightenment doing the same?
Is it PearPC running fullscreen?
ect...

It's up to you to decide, but NAME THAT OS!

I wont say if you're right or wrong.

On Friday, I'll award the first person to get it right the hundred bits, and anyone thereafter to get it right, 5 complementary bits.

C'mon kids, two entries? It doesn't take long to guess, even if you don't look at the pics, just randomly guess. Wink

It's a hundred bits. Razz

PearPC is portable to all operating systems. Even Mac OS X. Razz

BTW: There are no screenshots inside screenshots in here. What you're seeing is the actual OS, whatever that may be.

wtf are you smokin'?

PearPC is an emulator. It emulates a PowerPC architecture on your x86 machine. You actually do install OS X on a Virtual hard drive you create on the computer. Confused
