SheepShaver is an open source PowerPC Apple Macintosh emulator originally designed for BeOS and Linux. The name is a play on ShapeShifter,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Official SheepShaver Homepage )〕 a Macintosh II emulator for AmigaOS (made obsolete by Basilisk II), which is in turn not to be confused with a third-party preference pane for Mac OS X with the same name. The ShapeShifter and SheepShaver projects were originally conceived and programmed by Christian Bauer. However, the main developer behind SheepShaver, of late, has been Gwenolé Beauchesne. ==History== SheepShaver was originally commercial software when first released in 1998, but after the demise of Be Inc., the maker of BeOS, it became open source in 2002.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Official SheepShaver Homepage )〕 It can be run on both PowerPC and x86 systems; however, it runs more slowly on an x86 system than on a PowerPC system, because of the translation between the PowerPC and Intel x86 instruction sets.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=SheepShaver (wayback machine) )〕 SheepShaver has also been ported to Microsoft Windows. SheepShaver is no longer under active development. However, it still receives minor bug fixes every so often. As a free software, a few variants exist to simplify the installation process on Intel-based Macs: * ‘Sheep Shaver Wrapper’〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The SheepShaver Wrapper for OS X )〕 is built off of Sheep Shaver but it does some of the bundling work for you. * 'Chubby Bunny'〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The SheepShaver Wrapper for OS X )〕 also simplifies the set up process of OS 9 visualization on Intel Macs running OS X. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「SheepShaver」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
