fake86 - Dos Emulator Its not a substitute for DosBox, its just different beast :D Short: Fake86 is an 8086 PC emulator written in C. It is written from scratch, including the CPU core  Long: Fake86 is used in a similar manner to QEMU, but Fake86 does not support 386 and newer code. Some...

Uh btw, sorry for de-railing the topic. :D

We're not in 90s anymore. The law is not working like in wild west. Advertise emulation isnt the base to sue anyone but using Trademark  names is..  Who introduces emulation in mainstream consoles?. Of course Niny with NeoGeo Games in WiiChannel some time ago. 

@God  If ED will pump-up pyra page with trademarks like 'Sega Saturn Emulation for the masses, Best Nintendo 64 Emulator here', he will likely be shoot down pretty easily, but if he starts to advertise 'general emulation of older systems' his butt is covered instantly.  Actual Niny + Sony...

Im finding ED as an excellent strategist. I know he will choose ideal solution. 

Dont let some ideas fool You. Just it's niche product, it doesnt mean that it will stay niche. Why ED would like to make it niche when he could go globally ? Why earn 100$ when you can earn 1000$. Its business, its simple. Of course community is important, but community comes and goes [like You...

Create problem [Pandora ARM = No Indie Dev's], and propose a solution [Pyra x86 = Homebrew / Indie Heaven]. ED You're brillant  :D

Yeah. Why asking indie devs to port a game to Pyra [ARM], if we could go into Indie Dev Garden by switching to x86.

Ingo, what OC was done?

if windows/flash/adobe-stuff will be used on pyra :P , yes this would help :D .  Of course ED will finally decide [and investors..], but i think we shouldnt kick x86 platform, because it's 'too mainstream' for some geeks..  If there will be competitor for pyra, but with x86 onboard, i would...

And another pack of pros (x86) - Skype on pyra - Steam on pyra - upstream apps like gimp, ff, cad-like, - dropbox on pyra - Haiku / reactos operating systems out of the box - bigger audience - More coders will focus on pyra - Windows (which isnt a pro for me, but might be for u) - a lot...

Pyra's LCD has pretty big resolution already, so im sure there will not be needed to implement any scalling in INDIE PORTs.  "If the game is written in C/C++/SDL, there shouldn't be much extra work to compile for ARM instead of x86" True, but only if you're working as a dev'r-freelancer for OP...

Its interesting statement of Notaz.. (hmm, interesting thing what lies behind that statement.. and why)

Devs jump to Pyra x86 ship if there will be no choice to choose from. I would like to hear the opinion of Notaz+Exo+PtitSeb+M-HT about that.  Architecture doesnt count for dev as much as a unique design and usability of pyra. So in comparision x86 is way more attractive than ARM anyway. Just...

And final one: Im sure x86 will help bring INDIE DEVELOPERS to PYRA easily [effordless]. Basically indie devs will need add to every app/game proper scalling (small code) for Pyra and port's done :D . It couldnt be more easy.. If making a port for pyra from linux x86 will be effordless, why...

and another though,  x86 could be beneficial for any dev doing something for Pyra. Its saving-time. No cross-compile stuff, no coding on OP [overkill :P ] no SSH'ing. Just dev'ing on x86 laptop and deploy to pyra easily, and this will be beneficial for new pyra coding newbies [so there will be...

Going into x86 we have all soft on hands from beginning, so devs could focus on develop something new than porting [which with ARM is a time-consuming thing especially with GL stuff]. Imho, fresh stuff is more important than ports, anyway. 

I dont mind to have 2 versions of pyra, but many devs will favour only one when porting stuff to pyra.. i mean if i buy x86 pyra i'll focus on x86 more than arm.. because i have more interest in it.. BTW. I dont care about OP legacy software, because mostly with bigger userbase successors for...

there's no reason to use UEFI if CPU will not be sufficient to run windows 8 on these soc's, so i think as you mention there will be no UEFI

I voted for x86 only because of Haiku OS [and partially ReactOS]. Apparently there will be no port for ARM devices anytime soon, so Pandora could jump on x86 to get Haiku OS. Apart of that i dont care about battery life as long it lasts 6 h of work..
