It's called CherryOS, and it's a hoax. April 1st has come a little late this year.
CherryOS might be a hoax, but PearPC is not, and it's been around for a while now. I know it's a tough thing to swallow for hardcore Mac fans, but it is a reality: you CAN run Jaguar/Panther on PCs.
I'll reiterate just to make things clear: my comments refer to CherryOS *only.*
While I haven't personally tried PearPC, it clearly does exist (indeed, there is much speculation that CherryOS is just PearPC with a new GUI slapped on it!). My understanding is that it's too slow to be really useful, but it's a stunning technical achievement nonetheless.
