They just emulated the BIOS. I don't think that's really fair, since it just boots ELILO, then emulates the BIOS from there.

It can be worth it in the future to some...GameGURU said:
Running Windows using virtualization, as fast as it may be without the need for processor emulation, wouldn't be good enough for gaming. It's great to have a single computer that can boot all the major operating systems. It's a failsafe for switchers, it enables people to play Windows-only games and use OS X for everything else, etc. It would enable a person who has to work on Windows-only software but would otherwise prefer Mac OS to have both on the same machine.
Plenty of people can live totally without Windows (like me, I don't dual-boot this Linux box), but there are also plenty of people who can't.

'course the irony is that its an iaudio mp3 player... well, its questionable whether its part of the iaudio line or not, but it says iaudio on the wrist strap. i can hardly notice it when im watching movies on the more-than-twice-as-big screen and recording movies as well. oh, not to mention the built in radio that doesnt require a flimsy add-on that will only end up breaking the usb port and rendering it useless
over it
