From MXS:Ĭherry OS is a software translator that allows you to install Appleis Operating System on x86 computer architecture.
This is also similar to the way VirtualPC works, emulating x86 hardware so that a Windows installation CD thinks it is installing on appropriate x86 hardware. Similar to the PearPC project announced earlier this year, Cherry OS effectively mimics PowerPC hardware, making a Mac OS X installation CD think it is installing onto a Mac. Company called MXS announced a new software emulator called Cherry OS that makes it possible to install Mac OS X onto x86 hardware (running Windows).
