Re: osx on windows computer?

2016-08-02 Thread Devin Prater 



Hi,
If Windows is slow on the computer, Mac will be slow as well. I'd 
recommend installing Linux. Look up "sonar gnu linux" or "vinux" If you 
really need speed, go with "talking arch" which is command line, but 
along with Emacs and Emacspeak edbrowse, it can be pretty modern-feeling.

RE: osx on windows computer?

2016-08-01 Thread Sieghard Weitzel 
Hi Gianni,

You cannot install any Mac OS on a Windows system. If your computer is getting 
slow and you don’t want to buy a new one I suggest you make sure you have all 
your data backed up to an external drive and to then reinstall Windows from 
scratch. What version of Windows is on that computer now? Do you know how old 
it is and what CPU and amount of memory it has? If it is a Windows 7 computer 
that is 4 or 5 or even 6 years old you may want to consider putting Windows 10 
on it. It is still free to do so even though the official free upgrade offer 
from Microsoft has expired on Friday. However, if you use any accessible 
technology like a screenreader, Microsoft still allows you to upgrade for free 
by going to the following website:

Windows 10 upgrade for assistive technology users
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/accessibility/windows10upgrade


Microsoft writes: For the general public, the free upgrade offer for Windows 10 
ends on July 29. However, if you use assistive technologies, you can still get 
the free upgrade offer even after the general public deadline expires as 
Microsoft continues our efforts to improve the Windows 10 experience for people 
who use these technologies.



There is also a very informative FS Cast (episode 129) from Jonathan Mosen 
which you can find at

http://www.freedomscientific.com/About/FSCast



Tomorrow a significant Windows 10 upgrade will be released, the first 
anniversary update, and I can definitely recommend Windows 10 even on older 
machines. I am currently using a PC which has a CPU that predates even the 
first generation I3/I5/I7 processors. It has a relatively low-end Intel Core 2 
Duo CPU, model E7400 at a clockspeed of 2.80GHz with 4 Gb of RAM and it was 
one of my PC’s at my store which I replaced, but after reinstalling it with 
Windows 10 it’s been running very well for me at home. This processor was first 
released in 2008 and I can’t remember if I bought that computer late in 2008 or 
in 2009, but it’s at least 6 or 7 years old. I put Windows 10 Professional 64 
Bit on it.



Regards,
Sieghard
