Run Mac desktops virtually on PC servers
While I feel that Apple is (or should be) probably examining this market very closely, I think the legality of this solution at this time (based on the current OS X licensing model) is questionable at best, and is existing only due to Apple's inaction at this time.

I double checked legal issues. DiscCloud is 100% Apple License Compliant. It does not allow you to install OS X in the virtual machine and contains no OS X code or binary. It only works with Mac OS X Leopard clients also.

So . . . Mr. codebilly . . . you're the one claiming that this is the best thing since sliced bread.

I'm not actually sure how much good this is in practice. Sure . . . you're now running a virtualized Leopard Server . . . but don't have have to have a real Leopard to run the virtualized machine on top of? The host machine could probably even be running Leopard client version . . . but then you're limited to the performance you can get out of whatever hardware you're running it on. I guess if you wanted to run multiple Leopard virtual servers and let one be mail, one be web, and one be file that would work . . . but you're still limited to the available performance on the hostmachine. |
