	Cherry OS Report
		Called Cherry OS, it claimed to be able to do for Windows what Virtual PC does for Macintosh users.
		Add in the fact that Cherry OS also claims to be able to emulate the 128-bit Vector processing functions of the G4 (called AltiVec or Velocity Engine), adding even more overhead, and still maintain that 80% statistic all for under 50 bucks, and well, you have one heck of a deal on your hands.
		Cherry OS is now available only on line at www.cherryos.com as a download, for $49.95.

		According to their website, Cherry OS will be available for download and purchase for the first quarter of 2005, but several people have gone as far to publicly state their belief that the product will never come to the market.
		Perhaps Cherry OS was nothing more than a publicity stunt for the company to attract attention to its video streaming products, fueling speculation more, several people have claimed that demos and once publicly available screenshots proved that the Cherry OS was simply stolen code based off the PearPC project.
		In times where the Mac OS is considered “hot,” PearPC is the only choice for those wishing to emulate a Mac on their PC.

	Review of Cherry OS
		One very nice component of Cherry OS is that it has an installer, complete with installation wizards to aid in the setup process.
		When Cherry OS was first released, we all wanted to believe that it could do what its creators said it could do.
		But clearly, from picking just random test sets, I've shown that Cherry OS is at best, a slow PowerPC/Mac OS X emulator; at worst, it's a rip-off of the hard work and contributions poured into the PearPC project.

		At the heart of the chat-room tempest is the claim that Cherry OS operates at 80 percent of the speed of the host PC's hardware, which would be a major breakthrough and a marked improvement on an existing emulator product called PearPC, which is free but known for its slow speed.
		Cherry OS soon became a hot topic in Web discussion groups with entries such as "CherryOS or CherryBS?" Most postings said the product was either a nonexistent scam or sounded suspiciously similar to PearPC's code.
		The current uproar, in fact, could be due in part to Mac-heads viewing Cherry OS as too good to be true.

		There's been a lot of buzz about Cherry OS lately -- since they started actually selling their product -- but there are some real pits in Cherry OS, and the people behind it (MXS), that aren't getting enough attention.
		The fact that it could boot OS X was more about showing just how complete their PowerPC emulator was -- there are other general emulators out there, but they are generally about emulating x86 or are very focused around an OS.
		The core of Mac OS X is open source, their streaming server has been open sourced, Mac OS X includes apache, samba, openssh and php to name but a few, and is shipping the highest volume *nix in the world.
