The software you're using as a comparison to the OS either didn't exist or existed as an older version at the time.

It is pretty sad when you have to hackintosh an apple product.

Just sayin']]>Jan 31st 2010 7:24PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/31/mac-os-x-10-3-installed-on-nokia-n900-via-pearpc-barely-usable/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/31/mac-os-x-10-3-installed-on-nokia-n900-via-pearpc-barely-usable/
iPas wont have much more oomph over N900, so instead of 90 min boot up time you might get 45 min boot up time.

There wont be a usable OSX hack for iPad, but maybe a linux will turn it from lemon to lemonade.]]>Jan 31st 2010 8:07PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/31/mac-os-x-10-3-installed-on-nokia-n900-via-pearpc-barely-usable/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/31/mac-os-x-10-3-installed-on-nokia-n900-via-pearpc-barely-usable/Jan 31st 2010 8:24PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/31/mac-os-x-10-3-installed-on-nokia-n900-via-pearpc-barely-usable/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/31/mac-os-x-10-3-installed-on-nokia-n900-via-pearpc-barely-usable/
It will be ironic when (/if.....hopefully it doesn't happen) hackintoshers determine that there is no way to get OSX on the iPad, being almost all Apple hardware. Yet a Nokia can do it.

/sigh at least it will make a fun little window to vnc into a bunch of computers with the various OS's on them.]]>Jan 31st 2010 11:52PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/31/mac-os-x-10-3-installed-on-nokia-n900-via-pearpc-barely-usable/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/31/mac-os-x-10-3-installed-on-nokia-n900-via-pearpc-barely-usable/
Theres a reason Apple didn't put OSX on it...they didn't want to recode OSX for the ARM architecture, and an x86 chip just wasn't a smart choice.]]>Feb 1st 2010 12:12AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/31/mac-os-x-10-3-installed-on-nokia-n900-via-pearpc-barely-usable/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/31/mac-os-x-10-3-installed-on-nokia-n900-via-pearpc-barely-usable/
Yea, but I'll probably pass on PearPC+10.5. That said, I'll still be happy to see it happen, but of course that article will be plagued by "OMFG LOOK HOW LONG IT TAKES, AND ITS APPLES STUFF OMGMGMG LOLLL"

Their choice of withholding OSX was probably a little deeper than just that though, though I'm sure that was part of it.]]>Feb 1st 2010 12:33AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/31/mac-os-x-10-3-installed-on-nokia-n900-via-pearpc-barely-usable/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/31/mac-os-x-10-3-installed-on-nokia-n900-via-pearpc-barely-usable/

iPhoneOS (which is used on the iPad) is a subset of Mac OS X. So Apple already DID code a large portion of the OS to run on ARM. Granted, they would have to port the iApps, but OS X and its apps were designed from the start to be easily portable - which is why it ran on Intel and PPC for so long.]]>Feb 1st 2010 7:39AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/31/mac-os-x-10-3-installed-on-nokia-n900-via-pearpc-barely-usable/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/31/mac-os-x-10-3-installed-on-nokia-n900-via-pearpc-barely-usable/Jan 31st 2010 7:05PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/31/mac-os-x-10-3-installed-on-nokia-n900-via-pearpc-barely-usable/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/31/mac-os-x-10-3-installed-on-nokia-n900-via-pearpc-barely-usable/Jan 31st 2010 7:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/31/mac-os-x-10-3-installed-on-nokia-n900-via-pearpc-barely-usable/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/31/mac-os-x-10-3-installed-on-nokia-n900-via-pearpc-barely-usable/

And your point is? I'm slightly confused as towards what your argument is. I don't remember saying anything bad about the N900 or the iPad, both being pretty nifty devices if you ask me.]]>Jan 31st 2010 7:25PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/31/mac-os-x-10-3-installed-on-nokia-n900-via-pearpc-barely-usable/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/31/mac-os-x-10-3-installed-on-nokia-n900-via-pearpc-barely-usable/Jan 31st 2010 7:38PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/31/mac-os-x-10-3-installed-on-nokia-n900-via-pearpc-barely-usable/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/31/mac-os-x-10-3-installed-on-nokia-n900-via-pearpc-barely-usable/
