Some things i would like to see happen to OS X

mushrooomprince:
Lets face it, os ten is the worlds greatest operating system.  


The only problem is that it only runs on macs ( from what i understand ).  Now not everyone minds shelling out the cash for macs because they are very nice machines and worth every  cent.  But the problem is not every one of us has a grand to blow on a mac.  

Probably the greatest thing about os ten is that it is OSS.  So if it is OSS, who's to say a group of software engineers couldn't write os ten for PC boxes ?

Doogee:
Yes but only darwin (the core) is open source, what really "makes" OSX is Quartz and Aqua which drive the looks of OSX.

In fact if there was a version of OSX out for PC but it didnt have Quartz/Aqua i really wouldnt bother looking at it.

cocoamix:
They could and maybe they have. the problem is that Apple is a HARDWARE company more than a software company.

billy_gates:
Well there is Marklar, a secret Ported OSX for x86 inside Apple.

But at opendarwin.org they have Darwin (osx's core) for x86 already.  But like Doogee said, it has no Aqua or Quartz.

Laukev7:
Try building your own Mac. You can even keep your PC box and just change your motherboard, processor and power supply (as long as your other stuff is compatible with Mac OS).
